- Source: Aline Brown Tate notes
Morris must have been a very good student. His teacher once told his mother that she wished the other students had as much time to work as Morris wasted. She said she even gave him extra work and he still had time to play. He attended Knox College in Galesburg. Morris worked as a salesman with Old Ben Coald Company and also for American Chicken Company. He worked for many years before he retired from the Internal Revenue Service.
Thanksgiving, 1951. There was a newspaper article and picture of the family at dinner. The article told of all the family's contribution to the armed services. The father and all four children served as noted:
