Poppa, as he was known, had a deep and abiding love for the Lord, his family, and his friends.
He worked in sales with Leary and Owens Heavy Equipment.
He is preceded in death by his beloved wife Sara West Murphy. He is survived by his daughter Barbara Pauly (Steve), sons Terry Murphy (Vicki), Randy Murphy (Colleen), niece Chris Tidwell (Sherwood) six grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren.
The family would like to thank everyone at The Crossings of Eastchase, Self Skilled Nursing and Hospice for taking such excellent care of Poppa.
There will be a Private Service for Family.
