He was a member of the Sons of the American Legion in Lincoln Park who are scheduled to have a service 7 PM on Friday evening.
Mark will be remembered as a gentle giant, could make anyone laugh, had a huge heart, and never had a bad word to say about anyone.
George Mark Morris III warmly known by his loved ones as "Mark, BIG Mark, Markley, or GMMIII". Mark was the kindest, gentlest human that we all had the honor of knowing. Whether he was playing World Dom or Xbox with people from all over the globe or just hanging with friends his funny kind hearted spirit that was so full of wit would shine through in an instant. He was a good son, a wonderful friend, and a loving boyfriend and stepdad who was always there to share a laugh, a thought, a hug, a smile. He left this world and all of us too soon, leaving behind a legacy of love and friendship that can never be replaced. Mark YOU are our angel in heaven watching over us... Thanks DUDE! Forever in our Hearts, you will live on.... till we meet again!
He was the loving son of George and Gloria June Morris; devoted boyfriend of Catherine Grant of Butler and her daughter Beth whom Mark loved very much; loved Godfather of Dane Turner and dear uncle of Zackary Turner; he was also loved very much by aunts, uncles and many cousins in Mississippi; he will be truly missed by his many friends.
