The family of Don Murrin announces with heavy hearts his recent passing. A man of remarkable character and skill, Don was described by his daughter, Melissa, as the anchor and heartbeat of their family. He balanced a quickness to forgive with a firm sense of right and wrong, guiding those he loved with both kindness and honesty.

A true “jack-of-all-trades,” Don possessed a powerful work ethic and a rare talent for design and construction. His family also relied on his sharp mind for medical insights, jokingly referring to him as “Dr. Don” for his ability to find answers to any health-related question.

Don was a proud part of a multi-generational Trona family. He was the son of Ted (class of ’55) and Orrene [Slafter] (class of’54) Murrin, and part of a long line of Murrins who attended Trona High School.

A Celebration of Life will be held in Trona on July 5, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Friends and community members wishing to attend are asked to RSVP to Melissa Wollard via Facebook. The family appreciates your thoughts and prayers.
