Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry to hear of John's passing. When we saw him at Beacon Hill he had a huge smile and seemed to be enjoying himself. Our thoughts are with you.

Sending thoughts and thanks to the Morrow family on the passing of John.

Best memories growing up, at age 13, of coming over the Morrow home weeknights to practice with Tom on his drums in the living room, Jerry McGovern on his clarinet and me seated at the piano where we would "pound out" WIPEOUT for hours!
That was the first band I was in and Tom was a constant musical brother throughout high school. And in reality - it was Tom' parents John & Lou that were our first fans. And...

A wonderful man, a stalwart Catholic, a positive influence and an inspiration to both of us. -Paul & Leisa Snow (IHM)

Our condolences to the entire Morrow family. I will fondly remember the times spent at the Morrow home, being carted around in the "Blue Whale" and the influence he had in shaping our early lives. May he rest in peace, and our thoughts and prayers, as well as our deepest sympathies, are with all of his family.

Condolences to the Morrow family from Steve and Mary Cok.

Dear Lou and family, John was such a good man. He was a good professional mentor to my husband ,Glenn. And you were both so kind to me as the time of Glenn's passing. I am grateful that you both touched our lives. May you be at peace and find comfort in warm memories.

What a special man of God. Our parish and community have been so blessed by John's generosity of time, talent, and treasure. John will be missed, but the impact of servant leadership will live on for years to come.

The IHM Friday Morning Men's bible study was blessed by John's participation for many years. We so appreciated John's wisdom, enthusiasm and humor. We are confident John is in good hands and our prayers go out for John's family. With heartfelt appreciation, the men of the bible study remember John.

I feel so fortunate to have know the Morrows for so many years. He always had kind words and never missed "God bless" when we said good bye, and I knew that came from his heart many fond memories.
