Phyllis and family,
I am sorry to hear about Morris. When I think of him all I can remember is how much fun we all had when he worked at Morris Moore. He was always smiling and always had a nice greeting for everyone. He will be missed. Hope you and your family can cling to all the good times and find comfort in them.
Sincerely,
Ann
