Morris Earl Johnson

I was fortunate enough to have been one of Morris' students in City Planning at the U. He was a great mentor to me during my school years as well as during my professional career. He always had a kind word or constructive direction to all those who sought out his help. He will be missed by may. RIP Morris.

Morris made my wife's ring for her. He took the time to sit with me, take my input, and add his meticulous and artistic touch. He donated hours of work, and claimed it was "therapeutic" for him. I reluctantly accepted his charity, but told him to forget it when he offered to pay for the gold.

Elaine, Kathy, Jeff and family,
So sorry to hear of the passing of such a great man. So grateful for our knowledge of the plan of Salvation. We will be out of town, but our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Elaine and family,

We send our love and gratitude for the chance to know a fine man like Morris. He was gentle, compassionate, and grateful. What a great legacy to leave.

All our love,

It was such a joy for me to get to know Morris and visit with him. What a sweet, gentle, compassionate man. Thanks for the great legacy. We send our love, faith and best wishes to you Elaine.

Fond memories of Morris and his wonderful family. His dad was our Bishop and served the East Millcreek area with great love and compassion. Morris inherited his great qualities as a member of this great family. He served well in his duty to God and Country.

Our love to his family.

Kathy and Jeff we are in Texas this month and will not be able to attend with family and friends. Please know that you and your family are in our prayers and we are even more grateful for the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ and for his making it possible for us to be reunited at a later time.
Love you guys.

Sorry for your loss. Morris was always a great example of being a great leader and Father as I lived in the V. V. 5th ward. Thoughts and prayers for your family during this time of loss.
