BLACKMORE, Murry John
August 21, 1948 – November 6, 2017

Murry Blackmore passed away suddenly on Monday, November 6, 2017 at the Oilfields General Hospital in Black Diamond, AB at the age of 69 years.

He will be dearly missed by his loving wife, Mary; children, Carrie (Scott) Walker, Mandy Blackmore, and Matt (Roselyn) Blackmore; grandchildren, Ben and Sam; and large extended family and friends.

Murry loved golfing and riding his motorcycle with his biker buddies. He loved working with his hands, tinkering and fixing things where ever he could, and working with his son, Matt. Murry was a strong believer in the importance of family and was a dad to everyone, especially Mandy, daddy’s little girl.

A Celebration of Murry’s Life will be held at the Riverbend Community Association, 19 Rivervalley Drive SE, Calgary on Friday, November 10, 2017 from 3:00 – 7:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Murry’s memory to the Veteran Affairs (Calgary), #700 – 6 Avenue SW, Calgary, AB, T2P 0T8.

“Love you to the moon and back.”
