Diane Murphy

Proudly Serving: Sobeys #868 Summerside, PEI

Position: Community Room Co-ordinator

Core Value: Proudly Serve Our Communities

Diane comes to work every day with an upbeat attitude. “I love my job. It’s everything I ever wanted in a job.” Because of her sunny disposition, you’d never know what Diane faces every day. “I’m battling cancer. I need to take chemotherapy every day,” she says. “It’s a hard thing to get through. But I get to put on a whole different face when I walk through these doors.” Diane has many ideas for ways Sobeys can support the community including hosting a luncheon for veterans around Remembrance Day. Thanking those who served our country is personal. “My dad was a war veteran,” Diane says. “His plane went down in Germany and he was lucky to come back.” Always wanting to help in time of need, Diane takes flowers to the hospital every so often to give to patients who are in for tests. “They don’t know if they are getting good news or bad news so the flowers help to cheer them up.”
