Born to Ann (Sullivan) Morris of Apopka, Fla., and the late Robert Morris, Bob was a man of great courage and amazing faith. A graduate of Boston College High School where he was a member of the Homeric Academy, he followed his love of Greek to Dartmouth College where he graduated with honors, summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, in the classics. He earned a juris doctor- ate with honors from University of Chicago Law School. Bob was a part- ner at Morgan Brown and Joy LLC in Boston, Mass., where he practiced employment law. His business life was secondary to his love of his family – his wife of 22 years, the Rev. Eileen Morris, his stepson Nathan T. Peterson of Everett, Mass., his mother Ann, and sisters Virginia Morris Ardin of Apopka, Fla., and Patricia Morris of Cambridge, Mass. He is also survived by a neph- ew, Brian Goff, and two brothers-in- law, Philip Ardin and Dennis Weed. He was blessed with many wonderful friends. Bob was a philanthropist, exception- ally generous to the needs of others, both nationally and internationally. Bob loved the opera, was a patron of the NYC Metropolitan Opera and traveled worldwide to hear his favor- ite operas and performers. Bob was a lifelong Red Sox fan and attended the Boston Symphony for 25 years. Bob was instrumental in the found- ing of the Winchester Area Voice of the Faithful – a Catholic groundswell group founded in response to the dis- covery of clergy abuse – which he ran faithfully for five years. While a strong, lifelong Catholic, Bob was also actively involved at Slatersville Congregational Church UCC. Bob was influential in the forming of the North Smithfield Food Pantry. Bob was an avid traveler, a voracious reader of all things historical, and had a music collection that rivals few oth- ers. Bob was a staunch Democrat, who started his involvement in presidential campaigns at age 12. He was very active in the Obama 2008 campaign. In his quiet way, Bob touched many hearts, and in everything he chose to do he made a difference. The last years of his life were a testament to his faith and his will to live life to its fullest. He will be missed by all those who loved him and had the privilege to know him.
