    Attention to the Family of Morris and Beth Smith ———- Both Morris and Beth were long-time patients while I was in active practice in Denison. It was a pleasure to see both of them and I could have not had more pleasant and cooperative patients —- and fond memories of each. Will miss seeing Morris at the local Braum’s store here in Denison!! My last conversation with him really reflected his “loss” of Beth. Condolences to all the Family ———— J.P.

    I worked with Morris at Anderson Clayton Foods for over 10 years. He was truly one of the kindest men I have ever met. He and Beth seemed perfect for each other. I last saw him at the nursing home when my Dad was there for a short time a few years ago. I have no doubt that he and Beth are happy once again to be together. Please share my sympathy with the entire family. I’m sure he will be missed by all and I feel so lucky that I had the pleasure of knowing him. God Bless you all. Beth Niemi

    Our deepest sympathy to Joyce and John David and their families. Morris and Beth were very special people. We kept in touch during the time of Johnnie’s illness and death in Sherman. He was always so thoughtful and caring. I always enjoyed our visits. I am sorry to say that after Johnnie’s death we lost contact but I thought of them often. God bless you all. Margie (Johnnie’s Niece) & Bob Pinion
