Each year family and friends of Beth Murray make sure her memory lives on. The acts of kindness she showed while alive are carried on through their support of the Salvation Army Angel Tree. Funds collected are used to ensure that children, living in need, wake up on Christmas morning not just to find toys under the tree, but also other necessities such as socks, underwear, pajamas, etc. This was something that was very special to Murray’s own heart and something she did each year during Christmas herself. Since her passing, her sister Andrea and brother-in-law Brian Lequia have welcomed a daughter, Madelynn Elizabeth, who was named after Beth, and will instill in her the importance of family and having a giving heart.
