Morris Family and Friends. It's a tragedy to hear about the loss of someone who was a kind and gentle person. He was always working or looking for work. It was important to him and had nice things to say about everyone. He touched me personally once and have never forgotten that. Till I see you again friend. Mia Lynn T.

First time I met Scotty was when I worked at the H&H he always had a smile on his face and when he went in a room it would light up. He had one hell of a journey he was respected by many and was always a gentlemen and was respected by many and had a heart of gold. Now he's one of God's angels and I know he will protect his loved ones and will continue to help out anyone he can. -Stephanie S
