Obituary for Renee Hain Murphy
My God, I believe, I adore, I hope and I love Thee. I beg forgiveness for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope and do not love Thee.
— Prayer taught by the Angel of Portugal to the three Fatima children
Renate "Renee" Hain Murphy, age 85, passed away peacefully at home on Monday, October 22, 2018. She was surrounded by her loving family in her final moments. Mrs. Murphy was born in Germany to the late Ernst and Theresa Meryer Hain on April 3rd, 1933. She was a member of St. Richard’s Catholic Church.
Renate lived a full and wonderful life with great achievements. As a child, she was recognized and awarded for her gymnastic ability in Germany. She enjoyed free-climbing mountains in the Alps. She was a survivor of WWII war torn Germany and came to America after she married the love of her life, John Murphy. Together they raised their son and three daughters with the constitutional values of our republic that Renee understood and appreciated.
Mrs. Murphy was a determined woman with a desire for her voice and opinion to be heard. She taught herself English and loved working crossword puzzles. She was a strong woman with a tender side and gave her best to her family. Her friends and family will always remember her wonderfully home cooked meals. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and sister that was loved very much by her family and others.
