Kevin Morse Obituary
Kevin is survived by his sister, Ann Fournier of Barrington; three brothers, Michael Morse and his wife, Nancy of Dover, Timothy Morse and his wife, Blair of Virginia, and Patrick Morse and his wife, Gabrielle of Somersworth, along with many nieces and nephews.
Kevin was a star in his close-knit family-the jokester, the tease-bringing love and laughter to everyone he met and insisting on being a part of the life around him. Kevin grabbed hold of life's obstacles and, with patience and tenacity, figured out creative ways around them. He engaged in everything with gusto: swimming and kayaking at summer camp; Saturday bowling and dinner out; and participating in his great love, Special Olympics. A star in track and field, Kevin earned a multitude of ribbons which he proudly displayed in his apartment.
Kevin attended the Great Bay School and Training Center, and upon completion, he worked in the back shop with his friends; the weekly paycheck giving him confidence and a sense of being a part of the community. Over time, Kevin moved to his own space within the Great Bay residential program. Kevin endeared all who met him, establishing many long-term friendships.
SERVICES: Visiting hours will be Friday, April 7, 2017, from 8:30-10:30 a.m., at the Tasker Funeral Home, 621 Central Ave., Dover. A Mass of Christian Burial will follow the visiting hours at 11 a.m., at St. Joseph Church, 150 Central Ave., Dover. Burial will follow in Calvary Cemetery, Portsmouth.

Time goes by so quickly but I will never forget my friend Kevin! The memories flow within my mind like it was yesterday! Kevin was a special person who touched me in so many different ways! He taught me to have more patience, more understanding, and laugh about the little things!! I will always cherish my memories and carry them in my heart! He had a wonderful family who embraced him and his life. We were blessed to have Kevin in our lives......

When Great Bay was in the campus in Newington, I worked in the "offices" so I only interacted with handful of clients - but I knew Kevin. He was a very charming man and I'm blessed to have known him.

I was blessed to have worked with Kevin at Great Bay for several years (2004-2007+-). He always brightened my day as well as the day of our coworkers. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was also a very productive member of the pallet building team.

Kevin, you were the light in your sister eyes, when asked about you she would smile sharing Kevin's love of bowling. And when asked who was paying for dinner Kevin would giggle and say "Annie"! We had the great pleasure of meeting you on several occasions. Your smile lit up a room.
Ann and family, our love, thoughts and prayers.
May Kevin be the star he was on earth be forever shining in heaven.
