It is with great Sadness that Mike "Buzzard" Morriss passed away at age 70 on June 12, 2025. He lost his fight with cancer. He goes to his Mother, Father, Sisters and Brothers. He leaves behind two fur babies, three children, a sister, brother and many grandchildren. Buzzard was a proud veteran having Served Honorably in the early 1970's. After his duty he earned 3 degrees in computer engineering. His love for riding Harleys as well as building motorcycles was his joy. He always had time to help others to get their bikes up and running.
He will be missed by friends and family alike. Fair winds pops.
