NOAH JACKSON MORRIS
NOAH JACKSON MORRIS, one of the oldest and best known men in the Pirkey community, passed to the great beyond Jan. 14,1928, at his home in his 88th year. Mr. Morris had been somewhat feeble for some time but bore his sickness with a Christian's fortitude. Mr. Morris was a charter member of Mt. Olivet Christian Church having been a member of the old Mt. Union Church in Bacon Hollow which was the first Christian Church in Greene County. Mr. Morris was active member of the Christian Church for more then a half a century. In all he was a member of the church for 60 years, always taking an active part in preaching services, Sunday School and Prayer Meetings until he was too old to take active part. Mr. Morris was a staunch Republican in politics, always taking strong interest in his party. He was always at the polls early and fought for his men all day. He influence was always sought by men who ran for county office. Your writer remembers what a very prominent man said of him once: If he was going to run for a county office he would first find out how Noah Morris stood and if he was against him he would not run. Mr. Morris was a man of fine business qualities one of the most thrifty men in his younger days in his community, being the first man to start a general store in that section which he successfully ran for years. He was devoted to his family and kind to his wife who died a few years ago. He was a good neighbor accommodating to unfortunate people who needed help. He would always help widows and people who needed his assistance. Men of his kind are rare and more of them needed. His funeral services was conducted by his pastor Dr. W.T. Walters of Harrisonburg at the Evergreen Church in the presence of a large congregation of friends and relatives. His body was laid to rest by the side of his dear wife. The grave was profusely decorated by beautiful flowers in token of his memory. (I left the songs and what was preached out.) His grandchildren were his pall-bears. Mr. Morris leaves to mourn his loss three sons, George N. Morris, James Noah Morris and Lively Scott Morris all of Pirkey; five daughters Eddie Rachel Via, Charlotte Morris Gibson both of Alexandria; Malissa Morris Shifflett, Ludie Morris Shifflett, and Allie Morris Shifflett who stayed with her father until his death. Peace to his memory. W. A. Crawford.

OLEN WEAVER MORRIS

Olen Weaver Morris, of Ruckersville, passed away at his home on Saturday, April 11, 2020; he was 88 years old. Born in Charlottesville, Virginia, on August 28, 1931 he was the second son of Earnest Earl & Mattie Margaret Morris. He grew up in Albemarle & Madison Counties. He helped his father on the Weaver Dairy Farm in Madison for numerous years. He worked for the University of Virginia; Charlottesville Lumber Company and joined USI (Comdial) in January 1961. After retiring from Comdial, he worked at the Greene Hills County Club part-time because he 'liked' to stay busy. He was predeceased by his siblings: Aubrey Allen Morris, Frances Marie Buttner, P. J. Morris, and Bobby Leake Morris. During the early 1960's Olen was a pitcher for USI, Building & Grounds and then Stromberg-Carlson soft ball teams. His younger brother, P.J. Morris, was also a pitcher, playing for Panorama in Earlysville. A June 16 ,1964 Daily Progress article says that P. J. and Olen played against each other at McIntire Park. "The long-awaited duel of the Morris brothers in the Industrial League came off last night at McIntire Park in the second game of a doubleheader. In the opening game of the night, State Farm outlasted HEW, 15-9. The two Morris boys put on quite a pitching demonstration in the nightcap. P. J., although the loser, retired 17 men on strikes. In case you haven't figured, only four USI men made out some other way than striking out." A USI Company news bulletin reports "USI's softball team has two "sure-fire" pitchers. Enos Rudolph Roach and Olen Weaver "Olie" Morris. To date and including last season they have won thirty (30) games. Now that's some pitching. When these two pitchers are not residing on the mound you might find them just anywhere. Olie is a Jack-of-all-trades. You often find him working on a friend's car or truck after supper (speaking of supper, Olie's wife, Ruth, is one of the finest cooks in this part of Virginia). He's a top-rate mechanic. Or, you might find Olen laying floor tile for a friend-just recently he helped his father-in-law, Alex Morris, build a house. Olie likes to hunt too." On December 27, 1957 he married Ruth Ellen Morris, daughter of Alex & Vernie Morris, in Ruckersville; they lived in Charlottesville most of their married life, moving to Greene County in June 1974. During their life together they had three children. Olen is survived by his wife, Ruth Ellen Morris; children and their spouses, Olen & Sherry Morris of Stanardsville, Ronnie & Wanda Morris of Ruckersville, and Donna & Keith Conley of Stanardsville. He is also survived by six grandchildren & spouses, Amy Marie & Jared Morris, Shannon Dale Morris & Jessica Smith, Robert Todd & Kelsey Morris, April Dawn & Josh Salyers, David Benjamin & Candace Morris, Justin Kennedy Henshaw; two step grandchildren, Jordan Ray Conley and Brooke Allison Conley; nine great grandchildren, Addison Tucker Morris, Makenzie Grace Morris, Connor Paige Morris, Landon Cole Morris, Tanner Hayden Morris, Christopher Gavin Salyers, Logan Michael Salyers, Alli Mae Salyers, and Colton Keith Conley; one sister, Elna Collier of Crozet; one brother-in-law, Terry Buttner of Ruckersville; and also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and a host of friends. He loved his grandchildren very much and was always eager to see them come for a visit. In December of 1984 he drove to Pensacola, Florida to bring his oldest grandchild, Amy Marie (she was 3 months old at the time) to his home for her first Christmas. We will miss and love you dearly. Olen always had a smile on his face, and he could be seen outside mowing his grass, or the grass of his neighbors. He like a well-kept lawn and took pride in keeping his yard in pristine condition. Olen will be laid to rest in a private family service at Holly Memorial Gardens. Pallbearers will be: Ronnie Morris, Robert Morris, David Morris, Shannon Morris, Justin Henshaw and Keith Conley. In lieu of flowers, the family request donation be made in Olen's memory to the Ruckersville Volunteer Fire Company, Inc., 50 Sassafras Lane, Ruckersville, VA 22968.
