Last night, Murphy Martin died at approximately 10 minutes before 11:00 p.m. That was about an hour shy of what would have been his 83^rd birthday.

Mr. Martin had been a Dallas media icon for about four decades. He was an anchorman for Channel 8, WFAA-TV, a Dallas-affiliate of the ABC TV Network, for many years. He was also the voice of the Dallas Cowboys in Texas Stadium for 24 years.

He had been suffering from heart problems recently and was living in retirement.

A funeral service, which has not yet been announced, is expected to be arranged for Monday. Murphy Martin is survived by his wife, Joyce Martin.
