Kilmurray was from Daingean, County Offaly.[3]
He managed the Offaly senior football team from November 2004 until 2006.[4][3] Kilmurray had two championship seasons in charge, most notably steering Offaly to the 2006 Leinster SFC final. That remained Offaly's most recent appearance there at the time of his death.[5]
