Heartfelt sympathy to Barbara and all the Murrays and to Pat and Tom Muldoon. Frank will be lovingly remembered by us here in Listowel.

Sincere sympathy to the Murray family on the passing of Frank. I have nothing but the happiest of memories of Frank , a kind and gentle man, when we soldiered together but on opposite sides of the debate while part of the Commission on the Rationalisation of The VECS ,not to mention our lively and entertaining discussions on the Dubs V Kerry .

I just learned of the death of Frank. My friendship with Frank goes back to the 1980s when he participated in various Health Education projects.

I am so sad to hear of Frank’s passing. My deepest sympathies to you Barbara and to Michael, Catherine and Conor. I worked with Frank on many projects in education and have very happy memories of those times. He was so effective because he was full of warmth , energy and fun and saw the best in everybody. He was the go to man for tickets to Croke Park and I can never forget 1998 when Frank got us tickets to see Galway’s great win ! He is a great loss but will be remembered fondly by everybody he encountered throughout his life.

My deepest condolences to the Murray family. I was a student in St Mark from 1985 to 1990 and Mr Murray was an excellent principal, friendly and out going . I have good memories of all the staff. RIP Mr Murray

My deepest sympathy to Barbara and family. Frank was a lovely man of great good humour and wisdom. He was a giant of Irish education. A great principal, a wise counsel in policy making and a hugely supportive colleague. Fear uasal, Ciarraíoch gealgáireach agus oideachasóir den scoth.

My heartfelt condolences to the Murray family on the passing of Frank.
He was held in great esteem by all. I recall, that when on a visit to Carna, one phone call to Dublin from him made a problem vanish.

His contribution in unison with our Trustees ,to the change of status of Waterpark College, Waterford, to a coeducational second level school in 2012 has left a truly transformational legacy that is to his eternal credit.
May the Lord grant him endless light and rest.

Deepest condolences to the Murray family on the passing of Frank. I watched his funeral on line and it was a lovely send off with Rose of Tralee at the end. I had great times and years stewarding with Frank in Croke Park down through the years.

He will be sadly missed RIP Frank.

So sad to hear about the passing of Mr.Murray.

He was such a supportive, kind and encouraging principal , during my time in St.Mark's Community school. ( Class of '87)

Sincere condolences to all the Murray family during this sad time .

My deepest sympathies to the Murray and Muldoon families on death of Frank (my lovely uncle). I have so many lovely memories of Frank, as have my children. He had an amazing knack of making everyone he met feel very welcome and special. He had a mischievous twinkle in his eye and passed on his love of sugar lumps. He even managed to convince my youngest daughter that she didn’t really want a rabbit and that a micro-pig would be much better!

I was so sorry to hear of Frank's death. Frank was Principal of St. Mark's Community School when I was Principal of the Junior School.
He was a wonderful colleague and friend during those years and for many years since.
Because he was such a warm,caring person we always felt the children from St. Mark's Primary School were welcomed into a happy and nurturing environment.
My deepest sympathy to Barbara,Michael, Catherine and Conor.

To the Murray family my deepest sympathy on losing your greatly loved family member Frank. As a Steward in Croke Park I came in contact with Frank. What stood out about Frank who was a Supervisor Steward was his kindness, generosity & his ability to relax new Stewards. These abilities were in addition to his great humour & he loved the bit of craic. Frank was popular with all. It's no wonder he was such good & hugely respected Educationist. The one mystery I could never solve is when Kerry were playing he never missed an important part of the action, without losing sight of his Supervisory duties. You will be missed. To his family I can but say "to live in the hearts of those we love is not to die"

Very sorry to hear of the death of Frank. He was the principal of St. Mark’s school in Tallaght when my two sons were there. He was a brilliant principal and and completely dedicated to bringing out the best in all students under his care. A gentleman and a good human being.
He is now reaping his reward in heaven.
May he rest in peace.

My heartfelt condolence to the Murray family on the passing of Frank I will never forget his kindness may God give him eternal rest and the family the strength to bear the great pain it was a honour to have known such a great person. Rest in peace my Friend

My deepest sympathy and prayers on the sad loss of Mr Murray He was a true gentleman and an incredible headmaster. He was widely respected by all the pupils of St Marks Community School. May he rest in peace.

My heartfelt condolences to the Murray family on the passing of Frank.

Frank was a true Ciarraíoch. I always learned from our meetings - official and personal - as Frank was an unassuming gentleman, who was ‘hard on the task and soft on the person’.

Dear Catherine, My sincere sympathies to you and your family on the death of your dear dad Frank. He offered me a part time position in St Mark's back in the '80s, my first job offer in fact, and although I went further down the road to start my teaching career, I will always remember that phone call. Shortly afterwards I realised you and Ciara were buddies at Beaufort. It's a small world. Your dad had a superb career in education, but was first and foremost your beloved dad, who no doubt influenced your own career path. I'm sure he's very proud. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.
