With deep sorrow and everlasting love, we announce the unexpected passing of Timothy Francis Murphy, age 28, of Manchester, NH.  Timothy left this world on August 12, 2025.

Born on August 12, 1997 in Canton, Ohio, Timothy was the beloved son of Rick and MaryBeth Murphy and the cherished brother of Olivia Murphy (deceased), Kyle Murphy, Amy Murphy, and Thor (German Shepherd).  He is survived by his parents, siblings, grandmothers Helen Ann Litchfield and Ellen Murphy, his longtime girlfriend Ayame Morrie of Manchester, NH, many aunts, uncles, and beloved cousins, and a wide circle of friends.

Timothy graduated from Salem High School in 2016 and went on to complete Boot Camp at Fort Benning, Georgia, serving proudly in the United States Army National Guard.

Tim was an avid reader and video gamer.  His love of history, his patriotism, and his dedication to family made him truly special to everyone around him.  He traveled extensively with family, most recently to Costa Rica, where he experienced sailing, hiking, horseback riding, and cliff jumping.  His humor, quick wit, and intellect were truly exceptional, and he always made everyone around him laugh and feel good about themselves. He had an uncanny vault of knowledge about random subjects. Tim had a gift for improvising celebrity impressions that were both funny and unforgettable.

His longtime girlfriend Ayame—the love of his life—shared countless interests with him. Together they built a life full of laughter, cherished memories, and deep companionship. Their love brought Tim profound joy, for in Ayame he had found his true soulmate.

Tim's larger-than-life presence will be sorely missed by all who knew him.

Friends and loved ones may pay their respects at Carrier Family Funeral Home, 38 Range Road, Windham, NH 03087 on Wednesday, August 27th, 2025, between the hours of 4pm – 6pm.  In lieu of flowers, donations to Community Crossroads in Tim's name would be appreciated. Donate Here
