Father Morris would come out and have a little visit with Pat whenever he had a burial there. He would sometimes even shed a tear for someone who had died. He was a loving and gentle man and another one of our many good priests of today.

The Lord has taken a good man back into his fold. Father Morris was so good to me during my illness, and I truly looked forward to his daily visits to give me communion, and to simply sit and talk. He was a kind and gentle man, and I will never forget him.
May God Grant him Peace
