I met Murray in the "70's....hitchhiking from Dalhousie to Antigonish ... I was freezing by the side of the road in Truro, thinking I was going to die...when a big truck pulled over, saved my life and asked me my name , and thats all he needed to hear...."your mom is from Antigonish"..he said, and he knew my uncles and aunts like brothers and sisters and we talked the whole way home....and that wasn't the last time he stopped for me. Always upbeat, with great stories, and clearly had the most uplifting contagious persona I have ever met. For those who didn't know him, and there weren't many, you missed out on a wonderful individual. He did it all....and left nothing of his game on the ice....will miss him.
