I had criss crossed across the country to find what I considered a great friend. Second day in Marysville I walked across the front dock where Thomas worked. I was puffing on a cigar and I heard a booming voice call out, "those cigars sure smell good, got an extra?" I was taken aback, being new and all on the job there. I didn't know this guy from Adam. I reached into my pocket and handed Thomas a cigar, and got a "that's mighty nice of you". Tom, I was to find out, was one of the most sincerest and loyal friends one could have. We never mixed business with pleasure, he being union and I management. This, in my opinion, cemented or relationship even further. Cannot say I miss him every day, but I do think of him quite often. He was a great individual, full of life and sayings.

I have great memories of Tom. He was a great man and I will miss him dearly! We always had a good laugh. And knowing every time I called the house he was guaranteed to pick up the line. He always made me smile and always had great advice to give as well as a big smile. He uplifted my spirits every time I talked of him or to him. We will cherish the memories of him. He sure loved lil Thomas and lil Thomas sure loved him. I promise that his love will pass on to the grand baby. I loved Tom as I love my own dad. And Joan you are a pure blessing. We will get through this I promise. Love you all.

I was at a total loss for words when my Mother told me about Uncle Tom.
My heart goes out to you & Tim.

He will be missed by all who had the privilege to know or meet him.
As you know you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Sorry I cant be there....but please know that I am here for you if you need anything.

Tom had a personality that was up front, and direct to the point. He never met a stranger, and was the first person to make a new guy feel comfortable in the work environment. Likable and lovable as a man could be in a work place. Never ever heard him say anything bad about anyone, and never ever heard anyone say anything bad about him. He was a good, clean, wholesome, outstanding, beyond reproach family man. He was a community leader, and loyal Union member. And was an excellent worker for the Chrysler Cooperation. An expert in hazardous material handling, and trained in first aid. A safe and experienced forklift driver. He carried an attitude like no other, and could bring a smile to your face in a matter of seconds. I am proud to have known Mr. Morrison. My deepest sympathy to the wife and family of Mr.Thomas H. Morrison. He will be missed by all.
