Boyd Allison Morris 1938 – 2023

In Memorial
Morris photo1

March 19, 1938 – April 19, 2023

It is with a heavy heart, we share the passing of our wonderful father, Boyd on April 19,2023 in Kamloops. Born in Targettville, New Brunswick on March 19, 1938, to Bert & Cora Morris. Boyd lived in New Brunswick with his family until 1961 when he made his way to Calgary, Alberta. This is where he met his wife Patricia at Renfrew Chrysler, and they were married on June 1, 1964. In 1967, their son Terry was born followed by their daughter Tracy in 1970.

They made Calgary their home until 1974 when they moved their young family to Kamloops, and they opened an auto parts business. Dad ran the business for a few years but needed a change, many nights were spent learning the insurance and investment business. He became an Insurance/Investment broker and was still working up to the day of his passing. There was never a place he could go where he didn’t stop and chat with someone he knew. Boyd was always up for a good conversation, always willing to give advice and always willing to lend a helping hand.

Boyd was predeceased by his loving wife Pat of 53 years, his parents Bert & Cora, his brother Ralph, and his sister Dawn.

Boyd will lovingly be remembered by his son Terry (Dolores) Morris, his daughter Tracy (Darryl) Schmidt and their children Kira and Bradley. His companion of 5 years, Iona and her family, his siblings Nancy, Grace, Donald (Pam) and their children Zachary and Rose all from New Brunswick. 

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice in memory of Boyd & Pat.  A special thanks to the cancer clinic and everyone who helped in his care.

At the request of the family there will be no service, but a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
