Daniel Glen Murray, age 78, of Russellville, passed away on Tuesday, January 18, 2022 at UAB Hospital.
Daniel attended Bethsaida Baptist Church and was a retired crane operator from Wise Aluminum. He proudly served several years in the National Guard. Daniel was a wonderful father & grandfather, an amazing husband, loving brother & loving relative to all his cousins and a loyal & loving friend.

He was a SPECIAL man, a one in a million, loved by all, and leaves behind many wonderful memories.
