In Memory of Graham Murray

It is with deep sadness that we share the loss of our dear colleague, teammate, and friend, Graham Murray. Graham was a beloved husband to Aisling, a devoted father to Tadhg, and was eagerly anticipating the birth of their second child. He was a cherished son, son-in-law, brother, brother-in-law, and friend.

A proud Irishman and true gentleman, at O'Halloran and O'Brien Graham's professional life was marked by his kindness, generosity, and willingness to help anyone in need. His unwavering politeness and professional demeanour made him a pleasure to work with and speak to every day. His thoughtful words and actions continue to inspire us to lead with kindness and compassion.

His love for rugby was evident throughout his life—from his childhood club, Douglas Rugby Club in Cork, to his dedicated support and play for Munster and Beckenham RFC. Known affectionately as "Poochie" at Douglas RFC, he carried his remarkable skill, infectious smile, and generous spirit to Beckenham RFC, where he became legendary for his unpredictable play—his dynamic running, offloading, and kicking game—and for providing the club with the worst excuse for being late to training: "concrete Tuesdays." Most recently, Graham was captain of Beckenham RFC 2XV, having previously been a key member of the 1XV squad for many seasons. With nearly 150 caps, he played an essential role in the 1XV league-winning sides of 2018/19 and 2021/22 and was instrumental in the 2XV’s promotion last season.

Graham’s deep connection to his heritage will be honoured with his repatriation to Ireland, where he will be laid to rest in his homeland.
