May 29, 1955 – April 12, 2012
Rick Murray passed away at Stanford University Medical Center, surrounded by loving family, after he developed post transplant complications almost one year after receiving the gift of life, a new heart. Rick grew up in the SF Bay Area and moved to Southern Oregon 12 years ago to raise his family. He touched many lives and will be missed by many family and friends for his optimistic gentle soul and sense of humor. His memories live on in our hearts and especially of his wife, Vickie, and two children, Shamus and Delaney.
A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, May 5th from 3-5 for Rick at the Jacksonville Library, Naversen Room in Jacksonville.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to:
