Thomas Morris

Tommy Morris (#45) was my boyhood hero and lifelong role model. My Dad, who took me to Princeton football games, arranged for me to meet Tom before practice in the fall of 1956 when the attached picture was taken. On October 20, 1956 I saw Tom “do it all” against Colgate, scoring 3 touchdowns, passing for another, holding on all 4 points after, along with a key game saving goal line interception. I met Tom again on June 14, 1958 at the Commencement Weekend baseball game against Yale where...

Dear Ann,
I am so sorry to hear of Tom's passing. I saw his funeral posted on the OMC website. I remember him as so smart and genial with a great sense of humor. I know my deceased husband George was very fond of him and respected his skills as a fellow lawyer. George has been gone for nine years now. I am still in the house opposite yours, which will always be "The Morris House" in my eyes. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.
...

Growing up in Columbus, Ohio as a close friend of Tom's younger brother Jerry, we considered Tom as our hero. We certainly could not have chosen a better one. I would like to offer my sympathy, prayers and best wishes to the Morris family.
Sincerely,
Louis G. Martin, MD

Tom was a close friend of mine in law school and for some years thereafter. I would very much like to get in touch with his wife Ann. Could you please send this to her -- my contact info below and my phone # is 917-856-5846.

Condolences to all the Morris family. I have such fond memories as a youngster of Tommy being in our lives. My Dad coached Tommy at Columbus Academy and encouraged him to attend his alma mater Princeton.

My sympathies to the entire Morris family on this occasion and especially to Ellie who was a friend in high school in Bexley. Tom was a solid role model for many of us who came behind.

Tommy was a special cousin for sure...many memories from Columbus, when he was at Harvard Law (and I at Endicott), and visiting Aunt Nina simultaneously in High Point. Condolences to Ann, Lauren, Tad and Richard.

I idolized Tommy when I was in high school and college. He was 4 years older than me and I bragged to my friends about my cousin, the Princeton football player.
