JEFFREY MURCHISON On Wednesday, October 3, 2018, Jeff peacefully passed away. He was surrounded in his last few months by his family and many friends. Jeff is survived by his wife of 21 years, Deanne; children, Jaime, Sydney and Avery; dad Dana, sister Shannon (John), nephew Hudson and niece Emery. Jeff was predeceased by his mom Margaret. Jeff was a loving dad and husband. One of Jeff's favourite pastimes was cooking for his family while enjoying a glass of IPA beer and if the season was right, watching a hockey game. Jeff had a passion for music and shared this love with his girls. Jeff dedicated much of his free time to the sport of ringette. He was a ringette parent, coach, ringette convenor for Sturgeon Heights Community Centre as well, sat on the SJRA board for many years. Jeff was an employee of Palliser Furniture for 24 years. He worked in various roles during his career and connected with many people in Winnipeg and Mexico. Many of Jeff's closest friends were also his coworkers. Jeff was known for his witty sense of humour and a deep love for his family. Jeff's family would like to thank the dedicated staff of GD6 at Health Sciences Centre and Dr. David Szwajcer for their excellent care and compassion. A celebration of Jeff's life will be held on Sunday, October 14, at 2:00 p.m. at Westwood Community Church, 401 Westwood Drive. In lieu of flowers, we ask that donations be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada. Condolences may be left at seasonsfunerals.ca

Condolences & Memories (12 entries)

  • Can’t believe it has been almost 3 years. I miss you everyday. - Posted by: Jaime Murchison (Daughter) on: Sep 03, 2021

  • My deepest sympathy to Deanne, Jaime, Sydney, and Avery, and rest of the Murchison family. I was friends with Jeff as kids and we played hockey together in Tyndall Park, then he moved away where we lost touch until Facebook linked us up again years later. Now we’re both busy dads, with daughters we love ALOT and are so proud of. Ladies, as a kid, I knew your dad as that friendly and funny buddy, charismatic and witty, always joking around. Reading his FB dialogues as an adult, seems he held true to those qualities and never changed. Jeff is proof that God takes the best ones first. He was truly a great friend to many, no doubt a fun co-worker in the workplace, and pure model of a loving family man with a life resume full of celebration. Wish we re-connected more Jeff, RIP buddy... - Posted by: Jamie Cameron (Friend) on: Oct 13, 2018

  • Jeff and I worked together for many years, and built a friendship. We connected through our jobs and our sense of humor. Jeff and I used to have the best conversations which always turned into laughter. My days at the office will not be the same without him. Jeff's quirky ways, will forever be remembered (there were so many). Jeff loved his family and always had news to share with us about "his girls". He was always so proud of their accomplishments. It is sad to have to say good-bye to such a wonderful person. Today we are wearing our hockey jersey's to honor our friend and co-worker. Jeff, you will be truly missed. - Posted by: Cynthia Dureault (Friend & Co-Worker ) on: Oct 12, 2018

  • Jeff! I'm so happy we reconnected after all these years. I'll always have fond memories of playing catch in our front yard (you had a terrible throw), street hockey, you having dinner at our house (and putting butter on your rice!). You told me once that your love for Hip-hop was a direct influence from Oneal and I always blasting it at home. Tyndall Park/Ellington for life. Till we see each other again little brother. Your "kuya" always, Ryan - Posted by: Ryan (Friend) on: Oct 12, 2018

  • You were always a great friend to have around and the best childhood friend growing up anyone could have. Our sincerest condolences to your family. You will absolutely never be forgotten and always missed. You are family. Keep shining my dear friend. - Posted by: Oneal (Friend ) on: Oct 12, 2018

  • Jeff was a ringette coach to our youngest daughter. He was so kind and patient with the girls. His dedication to making sure the girls had fun and learned the sport was amazing. He will be very missed. Our deepest condolences to his entire family. - Posted by: The Hamerla Family (Ringette ) on: Oct 10, 2018

  • To all of Jeff's family, we send our deepest condolence. We pray you will find strength to get through the time ahead with the memories you made together as a cornerstone. So many memories of Jeff as a boy, always funny. He wanted to be Jack Tripper from Threes Company - a funny chef! We watched him grow into a great guy, and celebrated with his mom Margaret every time there was a new baby girl, or some other exciting news for Jeff and his family; down to ringette scores and school concerts the girls were involved in. This is such a sad time - to say goodbye! You are all in our thoughts. - Posted by: Ann and David Brough (Family friends) on: Oct 06, 2018
