Morley was a life long democrat and served as an election judge for many years. He loved all

kinds of sports and especially enjoyed attending his children's and grandchildren's events.

Throughout the years he built many pieces of furniture for his home and each of his children

have a piece made for them of weathered wood. His last creations he called "dust bowl" art. His

memories will live on with the sound of a saw, the pounding of a nail and the smell of sawdust.

He will be missed.
