We wish all the Joseph Murphy family all the best now and in the future. We are so sorry we are unable to attend the memorial. But for me and my mom to express are true feelings I did a little poem.

Very few of us can say that in our lifetime were had the honor to meet someone larger than life. If were a mountain would tower over all others. Joseph Murphy was such a very special person. He commanded respect without saying a word but at the same time showed his compassion and caring for people.
Successful in every project he tackled his greatest accomplishments where the marriage to his beautiful wife and wonderful children that carry on all his special traits.
While caring for all people the elderly were dear to his heart. Tirelessly working hard to help and improve the lives of our elderly was dear to his heart. He touched the lives of many and their souls were so much better because of it.
Yes today the sky in Tracy is a little less blue, the streets less noisy and the birds have stopped singing. All in memory of the passing of one of it's most special citizens.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Please find comfort in God's sure promise of a resurrection as set forth in the Bible. (Acts 24:15; John 5:28,29) Those who are raised to life will have the prospect of never again being subject to misery, sickness, or death. (Revelation 21:4) I hope that reflecting on these thoughts will give you some relief during this difficult time.

Dear Mike and Family,
I did not get to know your Father very well, however a few things are very obvious in the way he lived his life. His contributions to citizens of San Joaquin County, including his efforts to see that the Silver Alert Program became law, where many. Most of all he and his wife June raised five wonderful boys. I am very proud to be Mikes father-in-law and Jane and I hold your entire family in our prayers for comfort in your loss. Bob Heintz
