"Brother Morris" was my math teacher in junior high school, and also taught me "Harmony of the Gospels." His son Kelly was an accomplished singer, and performed the theme from Camelot in a high school "Who's Who" presentation. His son Howard was a quick basketball player. Brother Morris was calm and gentle and did his job well.
