    Keith, Janice and families. Sorry for the loss of Cousin Ronnie, saying prayers for the repose of his soul.
    Knowing full well that he is now joined with Uncle Dominic/Aunt Grace and all our wonderful relatives. Today I grin remembering the time Ronnie was driving Dads Massey 135 and then suggested to Uncle Dominic that they should trade in the IH tractors for some MF. A kind and gentle man, the eggs are gathered, chores are done, the duck didnt lay and now you can rest.

    So many wonderful times with “The Murray’s” …. Ronny was always the inquisitive one, in a good way, wanting to know how things were going, how the crops are, etc. … most memorable one was Ronny and my Father having a discussion around the Catalpa Tree with the long beans …. not sure how or who labeled it the “Money Tree” but whenever we saw Ronny the first question was …”How’s the Money Tree”…. Rest in Peace Ronny and I hope you are having “Money Tree” discussions up there!

    Fond childhood memories of summer holidays at the Murray’s, helping to gather eggs, pick beans and then biking to Slabtown for a 5 cent popsicle. Then off to the Connolly Reunion.
    Cousin Ronnie was a kind soul, often picking up a scarf, or a tool, that might just come in handy! Strong in faith, he will be welcomed with open arms by out family members, who no doubt have been praying for this reunion! Rest In Peace Ronnie
