Betty Murray died peacefully at her home in Vernonburg on May 13, 2019 under the expert care of Spanish Oaks Hospice.
She was born February 3, 1923 in Hickox, Georgia. She moved to Savannah at an early age and was educated in local public schools.

Surviving are her daughter, Susan Murray Griffin (Britt) and sons, Frank Gray Murray (Kathryn) and Dr. Morgan Wimbish Murray (Anne), eight grandchildren, four great grandchildren, and a sister, Ann Rozier Raulerson (Ty).
