Mary Ann Morris January 4, 1930 – January 5, 2023
Mary Ann Morris, beloved mother, grandmother and great grand -mother passed away has passed away after a long battle with pneumonia at a Hospice Center in Delray Beach Florida. The last generation of a family that had lived for more than 130 years in Dalton, my mother Mary Ann and my father Bill spent most of their active adult years after college at Mizzou building careers and raising their family in St. Louis, Louisville, Chicago and ultimately in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They returned in the late 70’s upon the death of Mary Ann’s mother, Marie Knight and lived in Dalton, with a second home in Estero Florida. She maintained her dual residence in Missouri and Florida until, as her health began to decline, entered an Assisted Living Facility close by her children and grandchildren in Deerfield Beach, Florida where she lived for the last nine years of her life.
She is survived by her son Mitch and his wife Debra of Coral Springs, Florida, her grandchildren Justin, John and Jessica, and their families including five great grandchildren in Norman, Oklahoma, the Jim and Kathy Hale family of St. Joseph, Missouri and Bill and Mary Poillion of Durango, Colorado and Norman Oklahoma.
Full of life, love and laughter for almost a century, her life will be celebrated in Norman with the surviving family this spring, with her cremated remains then to be laid to rest in the family plot in the Dalton Memorial Cemetery.
