Bruce Murray death: Home and Away veteran dies after cancer battle

Home and Away stars have poured out heartfelt tributes for their coworker who died after his long battle with cancer.

The show organised a GoFundMe on behalf of crew member Bruce Murray in 2023, revealing he had been diagnosed with stage four oesophageal cancer that had spread to his bloodstream and formed numerous cancers on his bones.

Mr Murray — who had been in the TV and film industry for more than 20 years — started radiation therapy on his spine, ribs and hips before beginning chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
