Joye Morris

Joye was born on April 16, 1942, to the late Erman and Hilda E. Scott. She was one of nine children. Family was an important part of her life, and the love she shared with those closest to her will continue through the generations.

She was preceded in death by her beloved parents and her husband, Obie L. Morris.

Those left to cherish her memory include her children, Maria Curbow (Daniel) and Howell Waldrup (Nancy); 16 grandchildren; numerous great-grandchildren; great-great grandchildren; her surviving sibling, Jerry Scott (Maggie) of Paris, Tennessee; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.

Joye’s family and friends will come together to celebrate her life on April 16, 2027, which would have been her 85th birthday. It will be a special time to remember her life, share stories, and celebrate the memories and love she leaves behind.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Joye’s memory.

Though she will be deeply missed, the love and memories Joye leaves behind will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
