John Joseph Murphy Jr.

John Joseph Murphy Jr, a native of New York and a resident of Weber City, Virginia, passed away peacefully on October 29th, 2025, at the age of 91.

Born in New York, John was proud of his roots and carried the values of hard work, integrity, and compassion that defined his upbringing. After many years in New York, he relocated to Virginia to be near his family, where he continued to share his warmth, kindness, and generous spirit with all who knew him.

John will be remembered for his big heart, unwavering loyalty, and genuine love for life. He had a deep appreciation for old westerns and nature and especially enjoyed fishing—a pastime that brought him great peace and fulfillment. Whether by a quiet lake or along the shore, he found joy in the stillness of the outdoors and the camaraderie that came with sharing those moments with family and friends. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his son, Allan Bryon Clark.

He is survived by his daughters, Cynthia Imler and Johanna Murphy; sister, Patricia Gembicki; grandchildren, Stephanie Beckerman and husband Joshua, Skye Jones and wife Kaitlyn, Samantha Anne Clark, Brittany Phillips and husband Terry, Shalena Sloan and husband Josh; great-grandchildren, Rayne Armstrong, Kylee Beckerman, Lilliana Beckerman, Nova Beckerman, Ryatt Beckerman, Atlas Beckerman, Jase Jones, River Jones, Julissa Dawn Clark, Jordan Elizabeth Clark, Maverick Phillips, Allaya Sloan, and Allison Sloan, as well as many friends who will cherish his memory.

his beloved parents, Delta and Floyd Lemons Sr.

Floyd proudly served on active duty in the U.S. Navy during Desert Storm. Following his

service, he met the love of his life, Elizabeth, with whom he shared 30 wonderful years of

marriage. Together, they built a beautiful family and a life filled with laughter, love, and

unwavering devotion.

He is survived by his wife Elizabeth Lemons, their children Lilliana Lemons, Jacob Lemons,

man who never met a stranger, known for his easy smile, big heart, and the way he could make

anyone feel at home. Those who knew him will remember his love for hunting, watching MMA,

and cheering on his beloved Miami Hurricanes. But above all, Floyd's greatest joy and purpose

in life was his family - they were his passion and his drive.

The family asks that those attending the viewing and celebration of Floyd's life please wear

orange or green in honor of his favorite team. Floyd never wanted tears or sorrow; he wanted
