Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Janet Lynn Murray, 65, of Vero Beach, FL, passed peacefully at her home surrounded by family on Monday, February 27, 2023. She was born in Bellmore, NY to Andrew and Elizabeth (Luebbers) Yager (both predeceased). Janet resided in Watermill, NY for many years with her husband, Daniel, and family before moving to Vero Beach, FL.
Janet worked for years at a Long Island restaurant where she met her husband Daniel. When she was not busy helping Dan run Fairway Restaurant Cafe on the Green and catering parties, she could be found in the garden, practicing yoga, cooking for family and friends, or helping a neighbor. Most of all, Janet was a loving mother and a dedicated wife. During her life she was a very active member of Hearts of Jesus & Mary R.C. Church in Southampton, NY and Holy Cross Catholic Church in Vero Beach, FL. Janet was a devoted daughter of St. Francis de Sales Association.
Janet is survived by her loving husband, Daniel Murray; two daughters, Jill Draycott and her husband Justin of Brightwaters, NY; Erin Murray and her husband Ryan Spencer of Whitefish MT; and her special joy, granddaughter Julie Draycott. She is also survived by two brothers, Ken Yager, and his wife Kathy; Andrew Yager and his wife Lisa; and a sister, Judy Yager.
Family and friends are welcome to attend a celebration of the Liturgy of Christian Burial that will be held at 10:00 am on Tuesday, March 7, 2023, at Holy Cross Catholic Church in Vero Beach, FL.

We are so sorry to hear of Janet’s passing. From letting us eat all the Oreo’s after a hard day of middle school to teasing us about our mascara adventures while driving us to South Beach, she was such a cool, real woman. Thank you for sharing her with us, Erin and Jill. Thinking of you both. If you’re ever in need of a place to crash in Vero, our doors are open. Love from Kelechi and Chiaka, the girls on Honeysuckle lane.
