BUTLER COUNTY'S EIGHTY YEARS BIOS

JOSEPH A. MORRIS

(Transcribed by Peggy Luce)

Joseph A. Morris was one of the finest type of citizens who have given Butler County its strength and its character. He had lived here for almost fifty years, pouring into every community in which he made his residence the essence of a clean, upright, useful personality. He radiated integrity and rectitude. His judgment was sound and considerate and his soul was filled with kindliness for his fellow men. He reared family of stalwart sons who are filling places of usefulness and who reflect high credit upon their breeding and upbringing. Mr. Morris performed his tasks honestly and worthily every day and rounded out a wholesome existence that ever will be remembered gratefully and reverently. – October, 1934.
