Andrew Joseph Murphy After a sudden and brief illness, Andy left this world on June 10th, 2019 surrounded by those he loved at the age of 67. He leaves with wonderful memories his wife of 45 years Margie, their children, Corey, Kerry (Brad) and Brent (Erin) and his two grandsons Michael and Drew that he adored. His siblings Arnold (Anne), Gerry (Lorraine), Roy (Jeannie), Ted (Patrina), Ray, Alex (Tammy), Mary (Tom), Betty Anne (Mark), Georgina and Lori; many nephews and nieces, and too many friends to name who will forever remember him for his kind and funny spirit. His cat Hussy will miss him as much as anyone. Andy put family first and it showed in the relationship that he had with Margie. They were kindred spirits that were born to be together. After so many years he still called her his little darling. If you were fortunate to spend time with two of them together, you walked away knowing you just experienced what true love looks like. They have an indescribable love. He was a hero to his children and grandsons. He worked hard for everything he had to raise three amazing kids who are the perfect mix of him and Margie. He talked to his kids every day because it mattered to him. They would do anything for their parents and always came home to visit. Everyone is welcomed at their home. These are the things that made him proud. Andy was born on Crawley’s Island, grew up in the Cove (Mount Arlington Heights) and settled in the Bottom (Long Harbour) and that was as far away as he wanted to be from the ocean, the Trout Ponds and the Berry Hills. With the exception of one special trip to Calgary to surprise Kerry, and Saturday trips to […]
