Decades ago, Larry Morris was the speaker and awards distributer at a dinner held at the old Luckie St. YMCA. I felt  {and feel} greatly honored that he was the man who shook my hand, congratulated me and gave me my Most Improved Wrestler trophy. I knew then that I had hit the Big Time!

Kay,
I just came across Larry's memorial online. So sorry to hear about his passing.

Dear Kay, I was so sorry to hear about Larry and did not find out until today. Our prayers are with you and your family. I read one time that memories are God's way of giving us roses in the winter. May you have lots of beautiful roses.

Kay and family, we love you and will pray for God to keep His loving arms around you and give you comfort and peace.

Kay and family - I am so sorry to hear about Larry.  What a sweet, kind gentleman he was.  I hold dear some precious memories of times spent with your family when we all lived in Sandy Springs.  May God comfort you in the way only He can.  Praying for and loving all of your wonderful family.

Shan,
So sorry to hear about your dad.  My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

My condolences to the Morris family for their loss. It has been many years, but I will always remember him for his kindness to me as a young man.  I am sorry for your loss.

What a blessing Larry was to my family. I couldn't really grasp the impact when I was a child, but I know now how thoughtful and helpful he was to us during a challenging time. Kay, my mother loved you and Larry so much. I am lifting you and your entire family up now. I am sure Larry was met by the open and loving arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Much Love.

What a guy larry was. I worked in real estate over the years and knew Larry quite well and enjoyed his company............because I knew Larry was sincere in his actions.

Larry was a terriffic competitor in every thing he undertook.

His contacts were everywhere across Atlanta and he knew more folks then anyone else I knew in atlanta.Like all of us that developed real estate in Atlanta if you did not get slammed occassionaly by the banks and the bankers you were not considered very active. And Larry took his lickings and kept on ticking as professionals must do.

Take a drive around Atlanta out Peachtree Dunwoody Road, out Ashford Dunwoody Road,out Peachtree Industrial, out Holcomb Bridge Road; out Peachtree Parkway, out Johnson Ferry Road and out so may other places in  metro Atlanta and you saw some well executed single family homes, apartment communities, office buildings,commercial shopping centers not to mention several Days Inn Hotels in states other Georgia. These were the products of Larry, his partners and his staff of dedicated workers.

He loved, no Larry cherished, his fine family and he worked extremely hard in their behalf through the years. His family has backed Larry as their loving father and he has resonded as loving fathers do.I loved Larry Morris not because of what he did but who he was.

May God be with Larry and with his entire family.

Bob Nagel

I am so sorry for your loss of this great man. I was honored to know this true gentleman and to document your family wedding many years ago. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Kay, Kayanne and all the Morris family, You are all on my heart as you grieve the loss of a very special man. Larry was the epitome of a gentleman--Truly a gentle man with a generous spirit and heart. Our family was blessed to have known him. Love and Prayers. Jer 29:11

Kay and family: I am so sorry for your loss. I haven't seen you in many years. I am thinking and praying for you. I cherish the time we shared working together at SSI. With love, Pam Despinakis Kaufmann

Kayanne, Kim and I are saddened to hear of your dad's passing.  We are with you in our prayers.

What a privilege to have known Larry, who with his wife, Kay, has been a member of our Bible Fellowship Class at Blackshear Place Baptist Church.  A man of stature with an impressive appearance, Larry was polite and outgoing, having a kind and gracious demeanor.  He loved people and he especially loved Jesus. Now he's face-to-face with his Lord and Savior.

I am saddened by the loss of a long-time friend and former employer.  It is with great fondness I remember those years with all of the Morris family.  All of you will be in my thoughts and prayers in the days ahead.
   God Bless each of you!

Kay....It has been so many years, but we have kept up through our many friends at SSI. We were so sorry to hear of Larry's passing, and will continue to keep you in our prayers.
Fondly, Margot

Dear Kay,  Larry went home to be with the Lord just about the same time Dad did 7 years ago.  You were so precious to come to his memorial service.  We have kept you and the family in our prayers and will continue to do so.  Love, Sally(Drake) and Terry Butler

Having been close friend of the Wilders, I was fortunate to know and admire Larry.  He and Kay were always kind to us East Lake kids as we were growing up.  Tom, Kay's brother, was my best friend in high school.  I used to love seeing Larry at East Lake Alliance Church, where my father was the pastor.  He inspired me as a young football player, and his humble, gracious spirit was such a great model for all of us.  He was a great man in all respects.  Our condolences to Kay and the children.

Mrs. Morris, our thoughts and prayers are with you and the extended faimly.  I'm signing this on behalf of my father, Lee Enloe.  My father talked often of Mr. Larry Morris and what a great man he was for TECH and the community.  My father was at TECH from 52 - 56.  Prayers are with you and we need more men like Larry Morris.
Condolences - Lee Enloe, III

Kay and family,
Add me to the long list of folks who have many fond memories of Larry and know what a wonderful, Godly man he was. Kay, I know you are all hurting, but I loved how you used the word "freedom" in his notice. Yes, Larry is home now and he is free of that terrible affliction. Mac and I will be in prayer for all of you, and know that our loving Father will sustain you.

Dear Kay amd Family, 
I was saddened to hear of Larry's passing.  He was a real icon and friend since the 50's back when you were dating.  Even though we attended opposing colleges, I have always had the highest admiration for Larry.  He impressed all as a great athlete, honorable man, and proud husband and father who left those of us who had the pleasure of knowing Larry as having been truly blessed.  He was a real field general who has left a legacy that will be long remembered and he will also be remembered by many as "the brahma bull."  May your precious memories remain a part of your lives and the Lord's blessings be with you during this time of sorrow.
Sincerely,

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Kay and family: Daughter Kathy has been good to keep me informed as to Lary's condition. He was a fine person.  You made a great choise.  Everybody at the home loved him.  You and the fmily are and will be in my prayers. Still love you.

Frances Drake

May Dad was a huge fan of Georgia Tech and we watched Larry play college and professional football.  My mother and dad were very good friends with Larry's sister-in-law, Ann Wilder.   May He rest in our saviors arms until he is reunited with his loved ones.

Kay,Kayanne and all the family ... my thought and prayers are with you through these days.  We all celebrate Larry's life ...

Love and sympathy to the extended Morris family.  I'm glad I had this opportunity to learn a little more about Mr. Morris.  I know he will be missed and his legacy lives on in his grandchildren.  With love, Claire and Carlton Eden and family

Speaking for my sister, Joyce Johnston Chambers, we want to express our sympathy to the Morris family. Larry was a Decatur icon and will be long remembered in this community.

May he truly rest in peace.

Dick Johnston

Our love and sympathy goes out to your wonderful family.  I know it has been difficult these last few years but you have shown what a strong family you are and how you were guided by God's loving hand in caring for Larry.  
Hal and Carroll Ann Nordan

Those of us who grew up with you and played sports with you will aways remember you here on earth and look forward to seeing you in Heaven.

Aunt Kay and everybody... Growing up our uncle was bigger than life..but when we were around, he was just plain old Uncle Larry... I am truly heart broken for all of you because we have truly lost a great husband, father, grandfather, uncle... My dad always said the greatest legacy to leave is the memories and the example led.  Truly we have been left with an awesome legacy.  May the Lord watch over all of you during this time.  I love you.

Growing uo in Decatur, Larry was everybody's hero.  I am saddened by his passing and I know that he is enjoying the gathering of angels.  My sympathy goes out to his family.
Hal Choyce

We send our love and sympathy to the family of Larry Morris.  He was a great man and will be missed by all who knew him.  With love and sympathy, Anita and Michael Thomas

The Currys send love and deep sympathy to all the Morris family. We love you and have many happy memories of living across the street from you as you children grew up. Larry and Kay have been wonderful role models for all who have known them, and we are grateful. Larry was especially kind to me, counseling and even employing me while we were both on NFL teams. He was a great friend who always had time for those of us who sought to walk in his footsteps. Kay has been inspirational in helping with others who shared her burden through Carolyn Curry's work. We are grateful and will not forget.

Love,

Carolyn and Bill Curry
