MURRAY, John Joseph - June 26, 1970 - July 5, 2021
With deep sadness and a broken heart, we announce the peaceful passing of John Joseph Murray "Walton" on July 5, 2021 at the age of 51 in Guelph.
John was met by the Legendary Four and they helped him reclaim his smile and embraced him with loving arms. This loss, while painful to those left behind, is the beginning of new life for John.
He is now happy and free from the burden of his deep sadness and suffering.
John is now fulfilled and most importantly, reunited with all the loved ones gone before him. Many were taken too soon.
Born in Guelph, Ontario, John was the son of predeceased Dr. Joseph James Murray and Olga Irene Murray (nee Kuchma) and brother Joseph (Joey) James Murray and grandparents, Gilbert and Rose Murray and Alexander and Irma Kuchma. He was a loving brother and will be profoundly missed by sisters, Judith Lynn Murray (David Kornel) and Kelly Ann Murray (George Zakem).
John will be deeply missed by his best friend Janet Gould, who held his hand to the end.
He is survived by his many and abundant Murray relatives. Aunts Rita Butters, Rose Costello Rosemary Murray and Mary Stapleton (Robert).
Predeceased by Uncles Martin and Aunt Terry, Uncle Patrick and Aunt Patricia, Uncle Gilbert and Aunt Betty, Uncle Ron, Uncle Danny, Uncle Leon and Aunt Betty Ryan and Uncle Jack.
John was baptized at Sacred Heart Church and attended Our Lady of Lourdes High School in Guelph where he was a member of the football team.
Many thanks to the Guelph General Hospital staff for their compassionate care and a special thank you to Dr. Hood, who always demonstrates a deep kindness, compassion and understanding for patients, family and friends.
