Murray Wayne Somers

Murray was born July 2, 1944 in Carman, Manitoba and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Murray and Betty were married in 1969 and raised their family of five in Winnipeg. Murray was a very hard working and dedicated iron worker with Union Local 728 for twenty-five plus years.

He was an avid fisherman and spent much of his free time on his boat and camping at Caddy Lake, with his family and friends. He always enjoyed making people laugh and was always willing to lend a helping hand. He always made sure you left with a smile.

Murray was predeceased by his parents Orville and Dorothy Somers.

He is survived by his wife Betty; daughter Marcy (Jenn); daughter Mandie (Derek); son Kevin (Diana); brother Brian (Patty); sister Sandy; grandchildren River, Austin, Emily, Hayden, Riley, Zachary and Isabel; and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

Murray will always be remembered for his witty sense of humor and his love of lake life. He will be sadly missed by all.

A memorial service will be held at Caddy Lake in the summer of 2017 as per Murray’s wishes.
