Daniel Morrison Obituary

Dan Morrison Died Peacefully in his sleep on February 6, 2016. He is the son of Lyle and Janet Morrison of Roseburg Oregon. Dan was born and raised in Roseburg and there he met and married his wife of 35 years.

He is survived by his mother Janet, wife Karren, daughter Mellisa, 2 sons Daniel and Charles, 2 grandchildren Kailee and Tryston, also 2 Brothers Dave and Jeff, a sister Cindy plus many nieces and nephews. Dan is now fishing with his brother Steve and father Lyle who who preceded him.

Dan enjoyed many things that life had to offer him such as Camping, fishing, music, and reading. Hunting "bright and shiny rocks" with his wife and hiking with his best friend Michael. He also enjoyed gardening in the warmer time of year and maintaining his "weed free" lawn.

Dan also enjoyed spending time and entertaining family and friends with his great sense of humor as he grilled some truly delicious meals and oysters a time or two for everyone. He loved taking long walks on the beach with his wife, photographs of nature in action, and Duck football and Blazer basketball.

But above everything, Dan loved his family and truly cherished his Grandchildren. Dan will be truly missed every minute of every day by all who knew him, especially his family. He was a wonderful husband, a loving father, and Grandfather.

If I had known the last time I saw you, it would have been the last...I would have hugged you longer and told you that you have been a wonderful friend. Thank you for making me and each of my kids feel special, showing them the true meaning of uncle. Thank you for all the fun times we have had over the last 30 some years. Thank you for being the best friend my husband has ever had and no one will ever compare. If I had known........
