WM. E. MORRISON DIES IN SAGINAW HOSPITAL FRIDAY
Former Clare Man Buried at Cherry Grove Monday

“Bill” Morrison, a native a well known resident of this community for many 
years, passed away Friday of last week at St. Mary’s Hospital, in Saginaw, 
following an illness of several months.

William E. Morrison was born the son of Norman and Nancy Morrison, in Sheridan 
township, Clare county, July 24, 1893, and passed away at Saginaw, Michigan,

He made his home as a boy and young man with his great uncle and aunt, Mr. and 
Mrs. Wm. Morrison, in Sheridan township, and worked on the farms of this 
vicinity.

He was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Peters, in Clare, in 1913, and they 
made their home in Grant township for several years.  This union was blessed 
by the birth of three children, Ray, Harriet and Marilyn.  Ray passed away in 
infancy and Mrs. Morrison preceded her husband in death in 1937.

The Morrisons moved to Saginaw twenty-five years ago and he has been employed 
by General Motors as a millwright in the Chevrolet Foundry for twenty-three 
years and at the Chevrolet Aluminum Forge plant for two years.

Mr. Morrison was a member of the Methodist church.

He leaves to mourn their loss, the two daughters, Mrs. Theodore Card and Mrs. 
Paul Kunitzer, both of Saginaw; two sisters, Mrs. Charles Wood, of Flint, and 
Miss Katharine Morrison of Toledo; three brothers, Harold Morrison, of 
Whittemore, Roy, of Flint, and Doyle, of Saginaw; three grandchildren; other 
relatives, several of whom live in Clare and vicinity; and many friends.
