I am saddened to read this. Pastor Morris and his wife were at the church I was baptized at in Mt Morris Michigan. I was young....about 11 years old I believe at the time. My parents (Norris and JoAnn) were friends with Pastor and his wife. If I remember correctly, Pastor was quite the ping pong player and us young people tried and tried to beat him.....but were never successful. Anyway, the reason I did a search for him was Pastor Morris was the first to speak to me about some day considering the ministry. As I grew up and graduated I went into the military. Then another career and moving about, raising a family etc. Looking back, I can see God's leading the whole way. I was discipleship program while stationed in England, became a Sunday School teacher and deacon in several churches as we moved about. Not long ago....I began Bible School classes as I was filling the pulpit for our church after our Pastor resigned. This last Sunday, the church called a business meeting, and though we've had several candidates over the last two years, God apparently had other plans as the Church elected me as their Pastor. I was hoping to make contact with Pastor Morris and tell him thanks for the influence he had on me at such an early age. (Maybe he already knows?) Anyway, to his family..... Pastor Morris touched many lives. I'm so thankful to have known him. May God comfort you as we wait our redeemer's coming and the great reunion we all look forward to!
