Lew Morris

To Tammi and Jeff: Your parents were very special to me and I enjoyed the time I was able to spend with them. I loved the stories of their travels and your Dad's time in all sports. Take care, Jill Follett

Lew was an influential man in my life. I first met him as a bank teller at Midland Autobank when he would bring in the Mustangs deposits. When I was a new teacher at West High, he suggested to Ken Roth that I should sell tickets and I did so throughout my career. I spent many summers with the Morris family as I sold tickets for the American Legion games. He was a great activities director. Oh, the Class C tournaments he hosted at West High were memorable! I last saw him again as a bank...

I so enjoyed my many years working with Lew as my athletic director! He also was a good friend of my Grandfather, Jack Peckham, who taught at West with Lew. My thoughts are of all of you at this difficult time. He was a great man!

My sincere sympathy! What a wonderful life he lived -- I am his cousin Betty Maring Ballard from Missouri and I knew him from his early childhood visits to Missouri as he was born here. May God give peace to the children and other family members.

Such an inspirational educator. Mr. Morris was that teacher whose purpose was not to create students in his own image, but to develop students who can create their own image. I will always be thankful I had the opportunity to learn from one of the best! Thank you, Mr. Morris, you will be missed. It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge. - Albert Einstein

Mr. Morris was my favorite teacher at West High. Such a nice man and a tremendous loss to his family and the community.

Growing up in Billings, we ran into Lew everywhere: at West High, at church, and at the Mustangs baseball games. What a great life he led.

My thoughts and prayers go out to this wonderful family, Lew will always be a shining star in this community, a true giver in so many ways. I´ll treasure my association I had working and learning from Lew.

Lee and Allene will be missed. Great friends leaving wonderful memories. Prayers to Tammy and. Jeff.
