Carrian Murray

CarriAn (Ballaron) Murray, 57, formerly of Reading, PA, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, April 2, 2025 at Reading Hospital and Medical Center.

Born in Bryn Mawr, PA, she was the daughter of Francesco Ballaron of Winter Garden, FL and the late Karen (Smith) Boarman. She was the loving wife of Neal Murray, her high school sweetheart, with whom she shared 38 years of a devoted and loving marriage. She graduated from Owen J. Roberts High School (Class of 1985). She worked for many years as a dental assistant before proudly becoming a stay at home mom to her four children. She had a true servant's heart and served her friends and family faithfully. Carri loved to read, be surrounded by nature, specifically the beach, and to create memories with her family. In recent years her greatest joy was being "Yaya" to her three grandchildren. Most importantly Carri loved the Lord. Everything that she did stemmed from her faith in Christ and she has left us with a beautiful example of how to live for Him. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

Carri is survived by her beloved husband Neal and loving children: Olivia Del Grande and her husband, Steven; Neal Spencer Murray, Wesley Murray and his fiancée Destiney, and Brady Murray. She was a cherished grandmother to Stella, Enzo, and Lucia Del Grande. She was predeceased by her mother, Karen (Smith) Boarman, and her sister, Krysta Ballaron.
