Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry to hear about our friend Joe. Everyplace we look in our home reminds us of Joe. We felt like we knew him all our lives. We tell people we are afraid to move anything in our home because Joe will know. We never got to meet Andy but Joe always wanted us to. Joe made us laugh and we loved him. We will pray for Andy, his family and all who loved him.

Dear Andy, our heartfelt condolences, we will miss Joe greatly. What a wonderful person, a bright spot in our lives. He often shared the following philosophy with us. "Audrey, Danny, LIVE!!, this ain't no dress rehearsal you know"

We have been living in Palm Beach Gardens, Fl for some time, but will always have fond memories, as will many others, of our dear friend Joe Morrow.

Joe was a year older than me. We both were boys in Graceville, attending the First Methodist Church along with his brothers, John and Andy.

I remember Joe as a personable and energetic teen. He was a trend-setter. I recall he was the first to wear Bermuda Shorts. As boys will do, we made fun with it. A year later we were all wearing them.

I lost track of Joe over the years, except for an occasional word. I wish I had known him during his New Orleans years.

Mr. Morrow attended our annual Spring Garden Party several times and was a generous donor to our auction benefitting The McFarland Institute which among its many programs proivides chaplains to the NOPD. Our sypathies are with his family....Charles Young, President-Christian Health Ministries Foundation

I will miss Joe in the future because I could not visit my Mom in New Orleans without usually seeing him and Andy. He has been a part of my life for over 30 years and had always been there to support me. He was always so upbeat and funny, and it was impossible to have a bad day when I was around him. And he was a selfless person. He always wanted to make sure everyone was taken care of when he had his friends around him. He has been a best friend to my mother, and I love him for that. I...

Joe was an extremely talented designer and such a gracious person, always had a smile. He brought dignity and professionalism to our Design Comunity. I so enjoyed attending CEU classes with Joe, years back, so we could renew our ASID license, but that was before we both became senior citizens and were excempt. He will always be remembered not only by family and friends but especially by his clients as he brought to them surroundings that makes their home a cherished place. In the...

I will never forget Joe's kindness and consideration for my mother while she lived next door to him and Andy and to me after my mother's death when he found me sobbing on the street because i couldn't fit all her furniture into the U-Haul i had hired. Without missing a beat, he offered to store it at Ashley Hall and said that he knew exactly how i felt about not only losing a parent but possessions which would remind one of the happy memories we had shared. Hope he is busy decorating...

We can't imagine not seeing Joe at Rayne each Sunday morning. He will be sorely missed.

I was saddened to hear of the passing of Joe. Joe was always kind, generous and genuine. He was a very talented designer and a wonderful person. Condolences to the Morrow and Ashley Hall Family.
