Jane P. (Margretz) Morris
To our special Aunt Jane, You always filled our hearts with laughter and love; your special hugs and smiles were so warm and settling. Many times when we would visit and thru conversations you gave us good advise and had us look on the bright side of things. But most of all she was always there with open arms. We love you, and will remember you in our hearts always. Debbie, Donna, Barry

John, We were so sorry to hear of Jane's passing. I remember well all the years you spoke of her and meeting her at your house in Toddville years ago. John-one thing I will always remember and something you can feel very good about is how well you cared for her and had her best interests in mind. Nancy and I have a place here in Fort Myers Beach Florida where we go to in the winter months now so we aren't around for the funeral and regret that we can't be there but you are in our thoughts and prayers. May the good Lord comfort you in this very difficult time. Ross & Nancy

Dear Friend John, Marie and I were so shocked to learn of Jane's death. We remember so many wonderful times we spent with you both when we were serving at Meth Wick as Chaplain and wife. Your wonderful smiles, positive approach to each day, and the love you shared with each other, blessing many. I remember especially, your devotion John in constantly seeking Jane's best interests. Helping her at meals; helping her to worship; lifting her into the passenger seat of your Buick, as you went for a ride in the country. We also remember, with much fondness, your anniversary in July of 1953 the same as ours, and Jane being born the same year as Jack. Jane has had a challenging journey, but her joyous demeanor was a blessing to everyone. Especially this pastor and wife. We send our love John, our blessings and our prayers. Jack and Marie Kendall

Uncle John, I am so sorry to hear about aunt Jane, I really had so much respect for her, she was always so happy, and I know that was mostly because she had a wonderful husband who made her life so complete. I loved going to aunt Jane's house when I was younger and listening to her advice and she always made the best lemon cake! She will be so missed and I regret not being able to see her for so long, but will always remember her in my heart.

Dear Uncle John, I want you to know that I am thinking of you. I remember my visits to your home(s) throughout the years. Aunt Jane always had a smile and always looked so beautiful. Let's talk phone calls (Aunt Jane and the phone.): My memories start early on this topic. I remember seeing Grandma on the phone ...when asked..."I'm talking with Jane...." These were important calls. These were "lineline" type calls. As always, Aunt Jane was there. When I moved to Texas Aunt Jane started calling me. She helped me so much with those calls. Most of the time I would allow her to call me. I kept notes so to when a "good" time for me to call would be. Even with these notes, my calls to Aunt Jane ended up being badly timed. Thank you, Uncle John, for giving Aunt Jane the phone on my last badly timed call. I also thank you (and all of your family) for taking such great care of my aunt, your wife. Additionally, Dad told me that you and Mr. Kenny are providing transportation for him and Tamae today. I'm greatful. I know this is a very difficult time but, please, remember to take good care of yourself. I tried calling you but...bad timing. With love,
