Murray had a wonderful reputation for his quiet and steady work, over many years in Kelceys Bush. He maintained and extended walking trails and diligently ensured everything was done to a high standard.

Very saddened to learn of the unexpected passing of Murray. A well respected character whom we got to know through his work, and also his rod and gun outdoor pursuits.
I truly enjoyed Murray's occasional characteristic light humoured persona.
Fondly remembered for his friendship and support.
