MURPHY,
C.
Francis, Q.C.
Frank MURPHY died August 13, 2003 at St. Paul's Hospital from
complications following pneumonia. He is survived by his loving
wife, Jean, and his children, Caroline, Elizabeth, Adrienne (Peter
HOLMGREN,)
John
(Leslie
LEE,) Frances and Sarah, and his grandchildren,
Anna HOLMGREN,
Jacqueline
MURPHY and Robert
MURPHY. Frank and
Robert were special companions. Frank is survived as well by
his brothers Bud, Cal and Louis, his sister Josie
BENZ, and many
nephews and nieces. He was predeceased by his parents and his
sisters, Mary
COSTELLO and Pat
MURPHY.
Frank was devoted to his
family and deeply committed to his community. Frank was born
in 1929 in Calgary and lived most of his life in Vancouver. He
loved Vancouver for its beauty and the opportunities it presented.
He graduated from high school at Vancouver College in 1945, and
graduated from the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor
of Laws in 1950. He articled at and then practised with Campney,
Owen, Murphy and Owen from 1951 to 1958. He then joined Farris,
Stultz, Bull and Farris, which evolved into the firm Farris,
Vaughan, Wills and Murphy. He was the managing partner there
from 1978 until his retirement in 1992. He remained as associate
counsel until his death. He was appointed Queen's Counsel in
1984. Frank practised primarily in areas of corporate and commercial
law. He particularly enjoyed his involvement in the Greater Vancouver
Regional District. He sat on many corporate boards, including
British Columbia Gas Inc., Mitsui Company of Canada Ltd., Northwest
Life Assurance Company, Pacific Petroleum Ltd., Westcoast Transmission,
Kelly Douglas, Alberta Distillers, and Loomis (Mayne Nickless).
Frank was on the board of many non-profit organizations, including
the Vancouver Art Gallery, Canadian Red Cross Society, Convent
of the Sacred Heart, Holy Family Hospital and St. Paul's Hospital.
Frank was for many years on the board of the Catholic Children's
Aid Society, serving as president from 1973 until 1980. It was
an association of which he was particularly proud. Frank was
active in the Canadian Bar Association and was president of the
Commercial Law Section for two years. He was heavily involved
in the International Bar Association and from 1972 to 1982 he
was the Canadian representative to its Council. Frank's work
with this organization gave Jean and him great opportunities
to travel. Frank was a student of the world, interested and knowledgeable
about history and world affairs. Each of his children has fond
memories of trips, both at home and abroad, taken with their
father. From 1995 to 2000, Frank served on the International
Joint Commission, a binational Canada-United States organization.
This experience gave him further opportunity to travel, including
to many smaller communities in both the United States and Canada,
which were experiences he enjoyed just as he did his trips to
those destinations that are more traditionally favoured. In keeping
with his great interest in his community, Frank was involved
in politics and government affairs. He was of a liberal mind
and was a member of the Liberal Party of Canada. He participated
at all levels of the political process side by side with Jean
and Friends, more frequently at the federal level and in particular
in the riding of Vancouver-Quadra. Frank's greatest love was
his family. He was a loyal and supportive son, brother, husband,
father and grandfather. Frank's house at Point Roberts, certainly
his favourite place on this earth, is a site of especially treasured
memories. Frank was keenly involved with his children's activities.
He inspired his children and others with his curiosity, his physical
and intellectual energy and his commitment to principle. He lived
life fully and fearlessly. He met his final illnesses and challenges
in the same manner. He died within the rites of his church and
with the love of his family. He is greatly missed. The
MURPHY
family is greatly appreciative of the care and support Frank
and his family received from the staff at the I.C.U., in particular
from his final nurse, David
BOOTH.
The
Mass of Christian Burial
for Frank will take place at 11: 00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 19,
2003 at Sts. Peter and Paul's Church, 1430 West 38th Avenue,
with a reception to follow at noon at Shaughnessy Golf and Country
Club, 4300 Southwest Marine Drive. The interment will follow
the reception. Prayers will take place at Sts. Peter and Paul
on Monday, August 18, 2003 at 7: 00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please
make donations to the St. Paul's Hospital Foundation at Ste 164,
1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver British Columbia, V6Z 1Y6, Charitable
Registration No. 11925 7939 RR0001.
