Not sure what to say?

I just learned today that Morris passed. Sincere condolences to family and friends. His efforts with the Chicago Bar Association softball league provided me with years of pleasure. Thank you Morris

Morris was greatly missed this year at the festival. He always had a smile on his face and greeted all with his positive attitude. He always made sure he said hi to my daughter from the time she was a baby to her adulthood. We looked forward to seeing him each year. May happy memories ease your sorrow.

I´m so sorry for the loss of Morris. We went to grammar school and high school together and I remember him as a very positive person. He always greeted you with an enthusiastic hello. If you were doing any kind of group work, you wanted Morris in your group because of his can-do attitude. He made everyone around him better at whatever they were doing. My deepest condolences to his family. Vic Pildes Mather High School `72

Morris will always be remembered as the person who lit up the room or the beach for us. So much fun and always positive. So sorry to hear of his passing. This is a big loss. Omar

His hugs nearly as hood as Maria's and the absolute best at softball!!!! He always made me feel accepted, loved and special. He was the kind of friend that went right back to the place you were the last time you saw each other even when you hadn't seen each other for far too long. I was so lucky to have been his friend, and to have been around the Minuskin family. Mayra, Mari Ann, The world was a better place because he was in it. I'm so very sorry. Other than these, there are no words....

I am so sorry for the loss of our great and wonderful friend. He was more than a friend; he was family. When I think about him, I see that "Smile" that makes you feel better and warms your soul. But most of all, what I am going miss is his true feeling of his heart and the way he filled anyone that was around him with "Joy". A New Star is shining in heaven tonight, because the world has lost someone who shared his Light with all of us.

My mom played in the league Morris reffed. Years later I joined the league. When we found out about the news of his passing we swapped our very best Morris stories. His character never changed and my mother and I had the same fond Morris memories over 10 years apart. A true testament to his character. My favorite quote "is there anything you can´t do?" He will definitely be missed. Thank you for the smiles Morris

My daughter played volleyball at North Avenue Beach many years ago and I´ll never forget how much of a nice guy Morris was! The first year I talked to him I thought about how nice he was, a real first class person. The next year when we went back, I wondered if Morris would be there and he was. He remembered me and we talked, joked, and laughed together. He made a great experience for our family even better and I am truly thankful for meeting him!

My heartfelt condolences to family and friends. Morris was one of the most genuinely nice people ever. His smile and positive personality will be missed at AHPD where he reffed for as long as I´ve played there.
