The Town of Alberton is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Pat Murphy, who served as Mayor of Alberton from 2004 to 2006 and as a Town Councillor from 2001 to 2003.
Pat was a proud and dedicated community leader who carried a deep love for his hometown throughout his life. His contributions to the Town of Alberton, both as a municipal leader and later as a Member of the Legislative Assembly, reflect his lasting commitment to public service and to the people of West Prince. As mayor, Pat was known for his genuine connection to residents, his vision for a stronger community, and his ability to lead with both kindness and determination.
Pat was instrumental in shaping the identity of the town, coining the now-familiar phrase “The Heart of West Prince,” a slogan that continues to represent Alberton’s community spirit and pride.
On behalf of Council and staff, we extend our heartfelt condolences to his wife, Karen, his children, Drew and Lyla, and to the entire Murphy family. Pat’s contributions and dedication will not be forgotten, and the Town of Alberton will remember him with gratitude and respect.
