He fought a brief but very tough battle with cancer but passed in peace surrounded by his family and under the care of hospice.
He was a son, a brother, a father, a grandfather, a step-father and a step-grandfather. A seemingly
gruff exterior masked a huge, tender and loving heart. He helped and supported family, friends,
and neighbors throughout his life. Whether you asked or not, he was there to help and never
asked for anything for himself. Bright, sensitive, thoughtful, and true to his Scotts-Irish heritage,
stubborn almost to a fault. The physical presence of this humble man will be missed by many,
but the memories of his warmth, love of family, and kindness will long survive.
He was a committed hard worker in every job that he held. He had careers at Bigger Brothers Food Distribution, Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools, Bottomley Enterprises, Online Transport and Harris Teeter.
He was the son of the late Romie and Georgia Morris, born on March 28, 1956 in St. Albans, West Virginia. He was survived by his companion, Lisa Manley; two children, Scott Morris and Summer Smith; stepdaughter Amber Hester; beloved grandchildren Sarah, Natalie and Jacob; siblings, Sandra Roth, Steve Morris, Jerry Morris and Rodney Morris.
