RALEIGH, NC. - As the Korn Ferry Tour arrived at Raleigh Country Club this past weekend, it did so with heavy hearts, still mourning last week's loss of Grayson Murray.
Born in North Carolina's capital city, Murray, who was 30, was a Huge Caniac and supporter of the organization before tragically passing away on May 25.
On Sunday the event held an honorary tee time for Murray, where family and friends gathered. Justin Williams, Carolina Hurricanes Special Advisor to the General Manager, attended, presenting his parents with a special "919" jersey.
In lieu of flowers, the family prefers a memorial contribution to PGA TOUR Charities, Inc. and mailed to P.O. Box 1065, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL 32004. In the memo field note "In Memory of Grayson Murray." If you prefer to make your contribution electronically you may do so here.
The family says the donations will be used to promote addiction awareness and enhance mental health services and research.
