I remember growing up in 2 houses, mine just down the back lane from the 2nd on Alfred Ave. Don was the father I never had so I was never sure what to make of him, he treated me like part of the family. Especially on sleepovers when Cathy & I would talk all night and all you would hear was Don saying "girls be quiet and go to sleep" or "don't make me come out there" My deepest sympathy to Helen (Mom) and the entire Murray clan. All my love. Kathy Tremblay - Posted by: Katherine Tremblay (Friend(5th daughter)) on: Sep 02, 2013
