Paul Morrison Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Paul never met a stranger. His personality was a light in the room, which completed his "it's all about me" motto. He adored his two grandsons, Alexander and Asa where he was able to share his love of history and watch episodes of Sesame Street. He loves spending his time- including vacations with his many wonderful family members and friends. Friends that are truly members of an extended family. Paul was an avid UK basketball and football fan and loved tailgating at games and at The Shed. He also enjoyed traveling out of and around the country with his wife, especially the four cruises to the Panama Canal. Paul and his friends could be often found at the farm, where he would practice shooting targets and "the bull."
Other than his wife Lori, he is survived by two daughters, Andrea (Clay) Back, Lexington, KY and Kristen (Kyle) Campbell, Carlisle, KY; two grandson, 1LT Alexander Back and Asa Campbell; two sisters, Kimberly (Neal) Briner, Orleans, IN and Robin Bowden, Bedford, IN; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and extended family and friends. He is preceded in death by two brothers, Donald and Randall Morrison.
A gathering of family and friends will be from 5pm - 7pm Friday, August 8, 2025 at Clark Legacy Center-Brannon Crossing. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to UK Markey Cancer Center Foundation, 115 Waller Ave. Suite 204, Lexington, KY 40503,

Had so much fun working with Paul. Humor was his specialty. He was a great nurse and pitched in without being asked.

I will miss the times in the driveway where Paul, Dave the fisherman and I had solutions to all the world's problems. The world lost a great guy and I lost a good friend. Mike Higdon

It has been a while since I worked with Paul at UK, but he was always the life of the party so to speak-happy, smiling, and always a great co-worker. So very sorry to Lori, his family and many friends
