Rest in peace Mr. Morrise. We met at the time where everyone else close thier doors to me...we worked together at your office in Coral Gables for a year or two plus change.....what a seminar of enginneering I got for free everyday....what a mind of yours....what a great guy!...jovial!!... we never took the elevator, always the stairs...i still keep the recommendation letter that you wrote for me when I left to Boston.
Now back in Florida after quite a while I wanted to say hi, but while looking for you now I know that you took that trip to higher lands where there's love so much love.
Rest in peace Mr. Morrise. I will always remember and talk about you.

I was waiting to come home from my school trip and have you ask me a million questions about what I learned. I wasn't able to see you much this year because of school but every moment I spent with you I learned something valuable. I miss you so much and wish I could see you again one last time. Love you Papa

I love you Dad. You were the most interesting and intelligent person I have ever known. Sometimes you taught me just as much in what you didn't say, as much as what you did say. You were a person with much talent, much experience, and many funny stories. You had an amazingly unique perspective on life, and lived it to the fullest and best way you could. You will be greatly missed.

Dear Judy, we will always remember our dear friend Morris. A Renaissance man, brilliant engineer. Some vignettes: testing spaghetti doneness in your Miami kitchen! chatting with our 3 young children; his speech at his 90th birthday party! his writing books after age 90! designing my beloved brother's home, and showing me the tiny intricately constructed model; sending us lovely hand drawn holiday cards; the list goes on. We will miss him and send you our condolences and much love and many hugs. Miriam Maer, Lee Taylor and family (Megan, Alexis and Daniel)
