That was his choice of words, not mine. This is Mrs. Monashee writing at Monashees request. Murray lost a lengthy and hard fought battle with cancer, passing away yesterday. I am trying very hard to attach a couple photos without any luck. One was a photo I took on one of our moose hunts. He had every pattern and weight of camo but there he was, in jeans and runners. He filled most of his tags that way, go figure. The other photo was of his cherished hunting dog, Gunner, sitting in his lap. We lost him in April at the age of 15 years and 3 months. It didn't matter how much we spoiled him, that dog would pick up anything and lived to hunt, just like his Dad. Monashee made good friends on here, sometimes without even getting a chance to meet them in person...if only there was more time. Thanks to those that kept him company through his illness, there were many days that the only thing he was able to do was check in and see what was going on in the hunting world. There are no seasons or limits where he is, his only fear was running into everything he put in the freezer. Thanks folks and goodnight, Mrs. Monashee

Unreal. I was wondering about him as I was checking patients today. May he be with Jesus as we speak. Amen

I'm very sorry for your loss. He was one of several people I would have liked to meet up with. He will be missed here, also, as well as at home.
Prayers for strength and comfort for you.
The Mayans had it right. If you�re going to predict the future, it�s best to aim far beyond your life expectancy, lest you wind up red-faced in a bunker overstocked with Spam and ammo.

Mrs. Monashee;
Please accept my sincere condolences on Murray's passing.
I talked to him on the phone a time or two and you both were going to stop in here on your way south sometime, but his health didn't allow that.
Anyway again, please know that you and those who were close to Murray are in my thoughts and prayers.
Regards,
Dwayne

death and overcame the devil,
and bestowed life on your
world, yourself O Lord set to
rest the soul of your servant
who has fallen asleep, in
a place of light, in a place of
green pastures, in a place of
rest whence all pain, sorrow
and sighing have been driven
away. Amen."

I'm deeply saddened to hear of his passing. We all are better for his association. He was a fine man. Condolences to you dear Lady, and to us all.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?
