Obituary

Survived also by niece Mary Rycroft and nephew Richard Brown of Canada and numerous cousins in Canada and USA.

Nora is preceded in death by parents James and Anna Murphy, her sisters Rita (Sid) Brown and Elizabeth (Claude) Brawley of Ontario, Canada and nephew Peter Brawley.

Nora was born November 6, 1924 in Toronto, Ontario Canada. She came to the USA in her late twenty's and mostly lived in Colorado. With a deeply held faith in God she was active in her parish church and a member of the Third Order of Franciscans. She held a variety of jobs throughout her life using every form of word processing as it changed. Retiring after many years from the office of St Thomas Catholic Seminary in Denver. She lived her 90's in Florida enjoying the warmth and green. Honored and proud of her family's ancestry from Ireland, Saint Patrick's Day was her favorite. She especially had March 17 marked on her pocket calendar this year to see the day and now forever shares that day with Saint Patrick himself.

Expressed often - and ever so appropriate now - were Nora's choice sayings, "Time Well Spent" and "Bye For Now."

A Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled for 11:00am Tuesday, March 25 - Mary Mother of God Chapel at San Pedro Center with Officiant Father John Bluett and Musician Kathy MacCormack D'Agostino. Followed by 12:00 burial at Queen of Angels Cemetery in The Garden of Gentle Christ.
