Patrick Murphy o Santa Maria, California

June 5, 2023

John was a fellow Classmate St. Patrick H.S. in Chicago, Illinois. We graduated with the Class of 1966.

John was popular and well-known at St. Pat's, and universally respected by his classmates for his many impressive athletic achievements in both Cross Country Running and Swimming.

I just recently learned that John passed away years ago, and on behalf of his Classmates I offer sincere condolences to his family and friends. He will be missed and always remembered by his fellow students at St. Pat's.

The attached photo is John's Senior Portrait from the 1966 "Shamrock", St. Pat's annual yearbook.
