Kathleen Morris Obituary
Kathleen (Sause) Morris, 73 formerly of Fair Haven, passed away at home on August 7, 2020 in Myrtle Beach, SC. She was born November 16, 1946 in New Haven to James and Helen (Fryer) Sause. Kathleen is survived by her loving husband of 55 years, William Morris of Fair Haven residing in Myrtle Beach, SC and three sons, William Morris Jr. (Maureen) of Haddam, Scott Morris (Donna) of Winter Springs, FL and Kevin Morris (Janice) of Hamden. She is also survived by seven grandchildren, Timothy Morris, Bridey Morris, Vaughn Morris, Kevin Morris Jr., Ryan Morris, Patrick Morris and Colin Morris. Kathleen was preceded in death by her parents and a sister, Sr. Helena Sause.
Kathy spent her career as a medical secretary in the New Haven area. In her spare time, she enjoyed golf, bowling, and spending time with friends. Her patience was legendary and her calm demeanor relaxed those around her. With her quick smile and positive outlook on life, she taught those around her to live in the moment.
