Calvin Morrison Jr.

Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss. Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time

Trees sway
Gently nod
As Calvin passes on his way
To God

Many memories remain of the good times Aubrey and I, plus the Prices, enjoyed with Calvin on the weekends when we were all neighbors. He was always jolley; could tell funny happenings on those deer hunting trips. Now he and Aubrey can talk about the good times together. Calvin was such a kind hearted person and will be sorely missed by his family and friends. My sympathy to the family.

The Final Salute

“Brothers in Arms”, Military men and women down through the centuries, have traditionally exchanged “Hand Salutes” as a sign of recognition and as a way to render courtesy and respect one to another.

This “Hand Salute” is the last that we shall render to Calvin Eugene Morrison, Jr. our “Brother-in-Arms”. To his family it symbolizes the love and respect that we have for Calvin. And to Calvin it is rendered as a symbol of honor and gratitude to thank him for the devoted and selfless service he rendered to his country during WW-II while serving in the U.S. Navy. Calvin, you are a true patriot, who served with honor and distinction. You upheld the finest qualities of an American patriot warrior: courage, commitment, generosity, sacrifice, love and devotion to family and country. We bid you a sad farewell. You will be dearly missed from among our ranks. Be at Ease. Rest in Peace.

On behalf of the 1,261 military veteran Legionnaires of Lowe-McFarlane Post 14 of the American Legion and the 233 veterans of VFW Post 2238 in Shreveport, Louisiana, we extend our sympathies and our condolences to Calvin's family and loved ones.

I have fond memories of summers at Uncle Calvin & Aunt Rosemary's house. We loved being with our cousins. Uncle Calvin truly had the light of Jesus forever present in his heart. He was so kind, gentle and sweet to all of us. Lety, my mother and his sister, was so much like him - full of goodness and compassion. You are now in your eternal home, face to face with our Lord, and have been welcomed by Grandma & Grandpa and all your brothers and sisters. Your precious smile and genuine love for all of us will never be forgotten.

My sincerest condolences to the Morrison family. Mr. Morrison gave me a job when I was very young. He was a good person.

The world is a better place because Mr. Morrison lived. His legacy lives on through his wonderful daughters and grandchildren and through the countless lives he touched with his gentle strength and caring ways.
