Murray worked as a Manufacturer's Representative in the toy business for close to 50 years, retiring in 2002. His children and grandchildren were blessed that "Papa" was the "Toy Man" and so were the neighborhood kids.
Murray was a Renaissance man. He was an artist, a sculptor, a photographer, and a woodworker. In his later years, he became an avid gardener. He proudly exercised everyday of his life and would love to tell you all about his routine. Murray loved a good crossword puzzle and the Jumble, which he did faithfully every morning. He never missed an episode of Wheel of Fortune or Jeopardy. When he wasn't busy doing something,he enjoyed sitting in his garden he called his "Sanctuary". He often told his family and friends, "Carpe Diem"(to seize the day) and to just "Enjoy" because he certainly did.
A Celebration of a Life Well-Lived will follow at a future date.
