Dear Dan and Tom and family,
I want to extend my sympathy on the loss of your parents. Because of this pandemic, I wont make it for the graveside service. Its sad that all sorts of family gatherings are affected. I will be thinking of your family.
The Morton family holds a special place in my heart. Dan and Edith were always so welcoming when Id come to your house. On occasion, Id catch up with them at the DeKalb Symphony concerts when Robert was playing. Our dad and mom would also run into them places and Id hear how everyone was doing through them. They were such a wonderful couple, setting good examples as Christians.
In Heaven, they are reunited with Carol. I will always consider Carol one of my best friends, not just a childhood friend. I think of her often. I cant remember if I ever beat her in tetherball. I think not! All three of the Morton kids along with the Hicks trio made growing up in Smoke Rise fun. Remember the kickball games in front of your house? Those were the good ole days when times were so much simpler.
In the days and weeks ahead, I will keep you in my prayers.

Love,
Lisa Hicks-Patrick
