Dear Mike and Michele, we were so sad to read the obituararies this afternoon and find your father listed there. Bob, of course, has memories of your dad from more than fifty years ago. My memories are more recent. Your dad was a prince in every way. He was always upbeat and kept a positive attitude. Not only did we value his friendship, but we were totally comfortable with his dental expertise, even our son, Shawn, now 39, was a patient!!!!! We were so sorry to miss the funeral, but I had just finished reading the obituary at five this afternoon. Recently, we have tried to locate you, Mike. I found a Michael T. Morris on FB but wasn't sure that it was you. Keeping you in our thoughts at this difficult time.
