On October 8,1936 at 08:30AM at Kings daughters Hospital in Temple,Tx, a man child was born to Vivian Helms Morris and William Burnet Morris. They named him J.Helms Morris. He is now starting his 72nd year.
After graduating from Temple High School in 1955,he went one semester to Howard Payne College in Brownwood,Tx. Then attended Temple Jr college while working for the 7-11 stores.
A marrriage took place on November 2,1957 at the 7th Street Methodist church. J.Helms Morris married Carolyn Lynn Johnson. For a honeymoon the couple took off for Robstown,Tx where J.Helms and Carolyn both went to work for General telephone Company of the Southwest. J.Helms as a draftsman and Carolyn as a clerk.
While in Robstown from 1957-1962J.Todd Morris was born in 1959. Moving to League City in 1962,where Terry Neil Morris and Tami MarilynMorris was born in 1965.Many other events took place in the next 45 years and will be reviewed at a later time.
Let me leave you with some words of wisdom from Proverbs----"Lazy hands make a man poor, but dillgent hands bring wealth".
As for as the title of this little ditty--- The banks and post office took a holiday Monday to celebrate my birthday(well actually it was Columbus day).
That's all for now.
J.Helms Morris
