Kathy Murphy Real Estate

On January 5th we closed on this beautiful women’s property for 55k above asking. Usually, I would be so excited for a smooth closing for more than 10% over asking with multiple offers. This one was bittersweet to say the least, as she died just weeks after we went under contract. Diane was my hero, she always saw the best in even the most difficult personalities and made lemonade when the most traumatic things happened in life. Her husband died in 2014, and she wrote a book that would make sense of death to her grandchildren. Her goal in life was to make people close to her smile, she was the BEST listener and had such thoughtful, kind advice when it came to people and relationships. Needless to say, I learned so much about organizing for travel and am so grateful for the emails she sent on lists of things to remember. She had a natural gift for decorating her homes, light and airy, without clutter, with lots of meaning! Her funeral was this past weekend, and it was so very difficult watching her grown children and grandchildren morning her loss so soon. Enjoy your lives everyone, none of us know when our time is up and there is so much wisdom to be gained. It was an absolute honor to be a name on a last wishes list to be the one to sell this gorgeous property! I know Diane is smiling down on all of us on Eagles Wings visiting every place on earth with her usual insightful stories finally able to be with the love of her life, Mike :). Blessings to all…
