Obituary: Stephen Blakeney Murphy

Stephen Blakeney Murphy, 61 

Stephen Blakeney Murphy died peacefully at his home in Las Vegas, Nev. He was 61 years young. 

The son of William (predeceased) and Ellen Murphy, Stephen grew up in Hull Village along with his sister, Paula, and brothers, Greg, Mark, and Blake. He also leaves behind a son, Ryan. 

After graduating from Hull High School, Stephen was proud to serve in the U.S. Navy, aboard the battleship, the USS New Jersey. He settled in Las Vegas and enjoyed working in the food service industry. 

Stephen was a very good-natured, easygoing man, well-liked by all who knew him. He had the best qualities a brother could have: loyalty, honesty, and camaraderie. 

Though he will be dearly missed, he will always be part of our most treasured memories. 

Rest in peace, Brother.
