Just found out from Mitch like 5 hours late. Typical. Joe will be sorely missed. Glad to know you all were there with him at the end. He was all the things that you wrote in his obit. Really kind man, although I'd have never had the guts to say that to his face. Speed on Joseph.......

RIP JJ - You touched us all with you kindness, friendship & generosity. Save me a seat at Murphy's Tavern North.
My deepest condolences to the entire Murphy family.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Murphy family. Murphy's Tavern was our spot after softball and Murph was always there to greet us and boot us out at closing. "Get outta the streets and into the sheets!"

He always made us laugh and treated us like VIPs and family. I think he did the same for everyone that came in. That's the kind of person he was. Murph and his family made the Tavern feel like a second home to us.

The CHOP softball crew will "See you in Church" Murph!
Steve, Eric, John, Doc, Matt, Ali, Meg and countless others.
