Frank Murphy Memorial Condolence Book

Such sad news. My condolences to all his family, friends, students and colleagues. A much respected man and teacher who made all the difference. My brother has often remembered him over the decades with deep respect and gratitude. ❤

So very sad to hear. My condolences to his family.

Best headmaster ever.

My deepest condolences to his family and all Runnymedians. A man of great integrity, common sense, and smart humor. A life lesson I always remember he gave one of those hot summer afternoons at 4pm in Arga: If you take a punch in the face and heroically stand for it you’ll have to cope with all the force vector at once. If you roll down to the ground with the punch instead, as in the movies, then you will be able to minimize it and stand up again to fight back. It was much more than Physics. May his soul rest in peace.

One of my most inspiring teachers whose life learnings we continue to share today with our children. May his soul rest in peace.

Frank Murphy, a key figure in our Runnymede’s history. His teaching has crossed many borders, in fact here I am writing from my hometown Caracas in Venezuela remembering those days so long ago in Madrid at the house at Arga street where the school used to be. I will never forget Mr. Murphy´s voice, his beard and somehow long hair for those days, and how he managed to teach us some discipline rules in a kind way. Thank you, Mr. Murphy! I am sure you are flying free!
