Morr Sr. and Eileen (Trigg) Morr. Bob married Kathryn (Breuer), his wife of 46 years, on June 19, 1971, and she survives.

Bob graduated from Delta High School in 1963, and went on to Adrian College, where he played football for two years and received his Bachelor's degree in Education. He served over 30 years teaching high school social studies before retiring from the Delta school system after 16 years. Bob's passion for football led to 40 years of coaching the sport. He will also be remembered as a talented track coach, of which he also inspired student athletes for many years. Bob's hobbies included traveling to visit past exchange students, and being an antique dealer and gifted furniture restorer. He was a past volunteer with the Delta Fire and Rescue and an active member with Delta United Methodist Church and Fulton County Historical Society. Above all, Bob loved spending time with his loving family, and attending as many athletic events or performances his own children, exchange student "children" and grandchildren were in.

Bob is also survived by his two sons, Doug (Nikki Schuette) Morr and Darren (Amy Baxter) Morr; brother, Gary (Patt Gongwer) Morr; grandchildren, Trent, Coleton, Joscelyn, Brock, Brady, and Carter; nephews, Mike (Amy Demaline) Morr and Mark Morr; and many others.
