St. Paul's Cleveland Heights - Cleveland Heights, Ohio | St. Paul's Cleveland Heights

Brian Murphy

I was born and raised on the east side of Cleveland. I attended St. Dominic School, Gilmour Academy, and Case Western Reserve University. My biggest stroke of luck was meeting Cindy Calfee. We were married at St. Paul’s on January 1, 1983. Our four children (Christopher, Margot, Kathleen, and Andrew) were all baptized and confirmed at St. Paul’s. We have been blessed with five granddaughters (three arrived in 2022), and those fantastic human beings are now a big part of our lives.

My business life was mainly within the specialty chemical industry in Cleveland, working two years with the Harshaw Chemical Company, eight years with the Murphy-Phoenix Company, two years with JTM Products Company, and ten years with VisiMax Technologies. I am now completely retired from all business activity.

St. Paul’s has been Cindy’s parish her entire life. Throughout our forty years of marriage, St. Paul’s has been the spiritual home of our family and the source of many lasting and treasured friendships. I am a past vestry member and Senior Warden, and I am grateful to be again considered for a role in helping to lead our parish community.
