Hi Dad, This is the last time I'll be able to "talk" to you this way. I promised to take care of Mom and your little dog. I'm sure you're getting a kick out of watching down and seeing little "Dinky" walking down the driveway and yard with Mom and trying to catch and eat grasshoppers and crickets. Remember how she was so scared of your wood floors? I'm sure you're proud our dogs have taught her to master them and not be afraid and to even go up and down the stairs!!
Mom had a hard time on your 71st anniversary. We've been taking her riding around and seeing different things and watching funny tv shows to get her laugh. I think they've both adjusted very well and we love having them around and taking care of them.
Thanksgiving and Christmas are just around the corner and the entire family will be at our house next week; all together just like you always liked. It will be nice, but it still won't be the same without you, although I know you'll be smiling down on all of us. They say it gets easier with time...still waiting for that day.
I'm trying to do everything you wanted so one day I'll be able to see you again. I'm looking forward to it as well as the rest of the family.
Happy Thanksgiving and Christmas and please continue to be our Guardian Angel. I know the Lord will let you watch over us.
We Love You with ALL our Hearts!!!
Connie, Mom, Bobby and little "Dinky"!!

Hi Dad, It's been 1 year today and you're still missed so much each and every day. It's amazing what little things trigger special memories of you.
I honored your wishes. Mom and your little dog are safe and sound with myself and Bobby. They have plenty of space inside and outside to walk and roam around. I promised to take care of them in every way you asked so that's exactly what Bobby and I are doing.
I Love You Dad and please continue to watch over us all and be our Guardian Angel. We already have signs that you're watching over us.
We Love You and Miss You
~~Connie, Bobby, Mom and your little "Dinky" too

Hi Dad, I haven't talked to you in awhile. Yesterday was a little tough as some of your prized collection was auctioned off. I know how dear these things were to you.
I'm sure you're watching over us all and you know I'm keeping my promise to you about Mom. It's all falling into place little by little. Mom's getting excited and your little dog is too!! I know you already know these things since I know you're our Guardian Angel. I Love You and miss you so terribly much. So many things remind me of you, especially right now and I know you can "see" what I'm talking about.
We're taking care of Mom and little Dinky, so don't worry.
I Love You Dad with all my heart. Please continue to look over us and show us the way.
Love and Miss You Always,
~~Connie~~

Hi Dad, I haven't talked to you in awhile. I know you're better off and where you wanted to be, but we miss you so very much. Thanksgiving was a little tough, not that any of them are very easy and Christmas is a few days away. I hope you have a Merry Christmas in heaven with the angels and please continue to watch over us and guide us.
All My Love Dad

Hi Dad, It's a month today that you left us. We still miss you so very much. Nothing is the same anymore. The holidays are coming up and myself and Mom really dread them. I dream about you often and some of the conversations that we had are so vivid. I know you are where you wanted to be and are better off. I just pray that you'll watch over me, guide me and show me the way in which I need to go. I know you're looking out for me as well as the rest of the family. I just really need your wisdom right now more than ever. As much as I didn't like your recliner, I sit in it every time I go see Mom. I can feel the love; it may sound silly, but I don't care.
Please, please look over me and guide me.
All My Love,
~~Connie~~

To the children and wife of Mr. Morris..I pray you find comfort in knowing that someday you can be united with your earthly father and husband as well as your heavenly Father .I am sure there will be times the pain will be so unbearable but try and think upon the good memories you had for all those years..I am sure he is there cheering you on so you too will win the race just as he did..

Awe! My dear sweet "Morris Family" - you guys have been like a special treasure to me - all of you are so much like your parents - so full of goodness and kindness - and so special to me.
It is truly one of the hardest challenges that each person can have - saying good-by to our loving parents for a brief spell. Kinda like that saying -tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all? That also goes for our parents. A few cannot know this pain, but this pain is better to suffer through because it shows we have truly been loved.
You four have truly been blessed with two of the most special parents any children could have because they always kept you as the "treasures in their hearts".
I am so sorry for your loss, but remember it will just be , as the blink of an eye and you will be reunited.
Much love, Linda and Douglas Webb

Hi Dad; I went up to check on Mom yesterday and sat in your favorite chair again to feel your wisdom, love and comfort. Mom's doing ok for the most part. She, like everyone else, has their moments where the tears flow. We just all miss you so terribly bad. Right now I really needed your wisdom, which I believe came to me in a vivid dream last night. It was the last words you'd spoken to me which were totally coherent.
I love and miss you terribly, but I know you're in a better place.
I Love You Dad with ALL my heart. Please continue to watch over me and guide me in the way I need to go.
All My Love...Your Daughter...Connie

Connie, I really do wish I had words to take your pain away. I know the closness you&your father had take care of yourself,and your mother she needs you more than ever now.My peace & comfort blow your way. If you need me I'm always here.

Connie, Larry and family, please know that our prayers are with you during this sad time. Know that the sorrow you feel now is only the earthy human part of us. Your father is the kind of person that is dancing down the streets of glory and watching over you every minute and knows the hurt in your heart. When my father was sick he told me that the only thing that bothered him about dying was the hurt it would cause his loving family. Your father felt the same way and thats why you will go on and everything that you do you will feel his presence in your life, thoughts and actions. Please keep the faith and love of our heavenly father.

I have climbed alot of mountains
As the part of life Ive trod,
And Ive found that earthly problems
Make me lean the more on God.
When my trials seem too heavy,
And I feel I've lost my way,
Then I know my only comfort
Is to turn to God and pray.
He has promised He won't leave me,
And my prayers will all be heard,
As I claim each precious promise
That I find within his word.
If today you've reached the end of
Every shattered hope and plan,
Ask the Lord to bear your burden.
He's the only one who can!
We are going to miss Uncle Gene and the good times together but will be united with him some day and walk the streets of gold together. He will be there to greet us in our Heavenly home and we will not be separated ever again! May God comfort all of the Morris family and bring your broken hearts peace! We love you all!

Dear Dad, We made your arrangements yesterday..tough to do. We're all keeping a close eye on Mom. I sat in your favorite recliner yesterday afternoon just to feel closer to you. I dreamed about you last night. You had on the Rebel hat that I always picked at you about. You'd always just smile just as you did in my dream last night. Tonight is going to be tough. It's just too hard to say goodbye to the greatest Dad ever. Please watch over us tonight and each day forward. I Love You with ALL my Heart ~~ Your Daughter ~~ Connie

To The Morris Family:
I am so sorry about your loss. You can be consoled knowing Gene is in Heaven with no worries and no more pain. I have only met Gene one time. That was at Holburt Duncan's funeral. I helped him up the aisle to the back of the church by hanging onto the back of his britches in case he stumbled. Afterwards, his wife, whom I had also never met, ask daughter Connie, "who was that woman holding onto your daddy's britches"? It was quite funny at the time. I wasn't for sure if Clydie thought that it was.
But, the very short time I had the pleasure of being around him, I found him to be a very sweet gentleman and I hate I didn't get the chance to get to know him better. His absence on earth will be painful to his family and friends. But God will give each one the grace to get through each day. And with each day, work hard to ensure that one day, you will be with him again! Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Connie,
I am so very sorry about your dad. I know that it is so very hard to deal with right now. But God, family and friends will help you! You are not alone. Please call if we can do anything for you! Love, Pam

Hi Dad, We have your viewing and funeral today, but you already know that. I'm sure you're having a good time with the Angels. Please watch over myself and the entire family tonight and tomorrow. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I miss you so terribly much. I sat in your favorite recliner yesterday just to feel the love transmitting from it. I couldn't stay seated very long, the hurt and longing to have you here is too fresh. I really dread tonight and tomorrow. It's going to seem so final. I know I'm being selfish because I don't want to totally give you up. It's just so hard. I dreamed about you again last night. You and your rebel ball cap that I always picked on you about. I Love You Dad and Miss You So, So Much. I hope I can follow your example of kindness and helpfulness to all. I Love You Dad..You Were The Best Dad anyone could ever ask for..and not only that you were truly my Hero. ~~All My Love..your daughter..Connie~~

The only comfort is knowing you are now whole again and you have no more pain. I hope you'll continue to watch over me as my Guardian Angel...All My Love...Your Daughter...Connie
