Obituary of Claudette Jeanette Murray

Claudette Jeanette Murray, beloved wife of Dick Murray of Calgary, passed away on Monday, December 4, 2006 at the age of 64 years. Claudette was born and raised in Cornwall, ON. Her parents passed away and she went to live with her sister and brother-in-law Jean and Bill and helped raise their children, Terry, Tia and Billy. As an adult, she came to Calgary where she worked at CIBC as a Loans Officer. She married Dick Murray on July 4, 1987 – it would have been twenty years next July. Together they also worked hard to build their business “Dick’s Collectibles”. When she became ill, Claudette was lovingly cared for by her husband and dear stepdaughter Cindy. Her outgoing nature and joyous spirit made everyone feel special. She loved all people and will be missed by the many whose lives she touched.
