Vale John Murdoch

The Partners and staff of Murdoch Partners are sad to announce the passing of the Founder of the Firm, John Murdoch.

John started Murdoch Partners 45 years ago in 1979 as a sole proprietor in Boronia. Murdoch Partners today has over
30 people, a Financial Planning Division and a reputation second to none.

John was a professional accountant in the true sense of the word. His professionalism and integrity laid the foundation of the values
we continue to hold true in the Practice today. He was uncompromising in upholding these values.

John’s legacy is he was an Innovator who put client service first and foremost. He would say “Anyone can prepare tax returns or
financials but the real talent lies in forward planning and being in front of the game.”

John was a Mentor and friend to clients and staff alike and he will be sadly missed.

As most people know, John was a lifelong supporter of the Collingwood Football Club and his passion for his clients was
only matched by the passion for his Football team.

Our hearts go out to Margrit, his wife, and his children Hayden, Sean, Lisa, Emma and Jane and his sister Margaret.

Thank you John.
