He was the Cub Master of Pack 96, The Charter Organization Representative of MBC and The Membership Chair for the Adena District. He was also an avid golfer, which he enjoyed with many special friends. He was a lifelong Marshall Football season ticket holder where he enjoyed watching the Herd play football. A true Son of Marshall. Morris worked for Bearings Inc. for 28 years and retired in 2005 from Snap on Industrial after serving 12 years. Visitation will be held from 6-9 pm Monday, Oct 14, 2019 at Milton Baptist Church.
