Jackie Morrison of Orlando 9/22/1936

October 18, 2025

Bob this is Jackie Morrison of Fort Pierce or as you nicknamed me in the 10th grade in school (T0by). I sure was sad to learn of your passing on here. We had so many good times on Indian River in FP. I live in Orlando now and I served in the Marine Corps from 1953 to 1979 and was in the Vietnam war twice during that time. After retiring from the Corps I went to work for the Post Office in Orlando from 1980 to 2002. I hope someone in your family reads this note. GOD bless all, Friends forever Jackie PS we never did get to build that boat we dreamed about.
