WEAGLE – S. Murdock “Doc”, 73, of Liverpool, passed away peacefully Sunday, August 7th, 2011 at Queens General Hospital, Liverpool with his children by his side.

Murdock began his sea career first on gypsum boats then sailed aboard scallop draggers; “Bickerton Pride”, “Flying Cloud”, “Mersey Enterprise” and “Mersey Seven” for over 35 years with Mersey Seafoods out of Liverpool which allowed him to travel to various ports of the world such as China, Portugal, Mexico and the US. When he was not out to sea and when he retired, Murdock enjoyed wood working, glass etching, listening to music and especially spending time with his family and his friends.
He is survived by his daughters Karen George of Dartmouth, Karla (Kendell) Colp of Beach Meadows. His son Kevin (Karen Dean) of Mersey Point. His grandchildren Ashley and Tanner George, Kennedy Colp and Aaron Weagle, Cody Whalen and Melissa Penny. His sisters Florence (Clair) Thistle of Liverpool, Ellen (Jack) MacLeod of Milton and Ann (Vernon) Sperry of Liverpool. His brother Albert “Jr” of Oromocto, NB.
He was predeceased by his sisters Phyllis and Dorothy Comeau.

To ALL of Dad’s friends be you recent or lifelong /near or far,and we are proud to say you are strong in numbers, thank you for taking the time to post such lovely sentiments. Each one is taken to heart and Doc would be humbled by such caring expressions. I just wanted you all to know that we the entire family acknowledge your kind words and do realize the scope of people his passing affects beyond the above names and our immediate circle. The Ironman held down the corner of Queen and Brunswick for many years and his spirit will be forever, so a little nod on the way by; he certainly would appreciate it.
