Frankie was a devoted man of God who loved his family, community and church. He will be dearly missed by all, but one thing is for sure – those that knew him, knew he loved Jesus. He is right where he wants to be with JoAnn, his beloved wife, and Jesus. He was a proud Father, Grandfather and Great-Grandfather. He loved bragging on the accomplishments of all his grandkids and was a warrior and supporter for them all.
Frankie was born February 26, 1936 in Lone Oak, Texas to W J and Quebelle Elizabeth Abbott Morris. He married JoAnn Robertson on April 1, 1954 in Hugo Oklahoma. Frankie served with the National Guard. Frankie worked in many capacities, but seemed to thrive on working cows and the land. He was a salesman, an inspector and owned and operated a gas station. He loved to sing praises to Jesus and led singing in many area churches over the years. He was a member of Brashear Baptist Church.
Frankie is survived by his sons, Rick Morris and wife, Brenda, Lynn Morris and wife, Gail, Doug Morris and wife, JoAnn; grandchildren, Mindy Plunkett and husband, Joey, Cheryl Scott and husband, Ben, Andrew Morris and wife, Stacy, Holly Islam and husband, Prenon, Kevin Morris and wife, Amanda, Matthew Morris; great-grandchildren, Tyler, Sarah and Levi Scott, Lizzy Plunkett, Ellie and Adalynn Morris, Sydney Morris and Jude Islam.
