Not sure what to say?

Morris was a most generous man. We were fortunate to be part of his Craftsbury Chamber Players "family" in past years.
His warmth, kindness and humor will be missed.

Dear Rowell family.
I'm sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I have many fond memories of you all and the times spent at Brassknocker farm. I'm thinking of you all in your time of loss.
Jon

Morris was such a great presence in our lives when we lived in East Craftsbury. As an elder and member of the congregation he helped to make the church a vibrant community of faith.He plowed the parsonage driveway, which was often! We can still picture him bringing a jar of the first season's maple syrup to our door. He will be greatly missed. Rev. Charles & Sharyn Baier

So sorry to hear of Morris's passing. Our prayers to his family.

Mr. Rowell was always kind to me at the store. At first we would swap farm stories. Then we shared children stories. He always let me carry one of my bags of grain when I insisted to help. He sensed this was important to me. I listened to his stories full of pride around his children and grandchildren. He was a kind, intelligent , gentle man of this world. I feel honored to have crossed his path and shared some of the road with him.

So sorry to hear of Morris' passing. I enjoyed chatting with him several times a year at Rowell Bros. Seems like the end of an era.
