Tripp Murray is a two year old boy, the son of Kimberly Tripp and  Joseph Murray Jr. and on September 21, 2013, little Tripp was diagnosed with a brain tumor and was transported by ambulance to Boston Children's Hospital to undergo surgery. On September 26th Tripp underwent surgery to remove the tumor and at that time the doctors concluded that Tripp had an aggressive form of brain cancer called medulloblastoma and it had spread to his cerebellum and brain stem. Doctors were able to remove approximately 90 percent of the tumor. At this time, Tripp is undergoing chemotherapy in the hope of shrinking the remaining tumor.

A fund has been set up at Brewer Federal Credit Union to assist the family with medical and travel expenses. Anyone wishing to donate may send a check to Tripp Murray, C/O Brewer FCU, PO Box 189, Brewer, ME. 04412
