He lived all his life near the place he was born which is on what is now called Wyatt Mountain a spur of the Blue Ridge.

He was a member of the Christian Church most all of his life, being one of the charter members of Old Mt. Union church which was later moved to the Pines and the name changed to Mt. Olivet. He remained true to his church till death, which showed he was a man of firm conviction. The world needs men of this type in every walk of life, a man or woman that is going from one church to another expecting to better their condition in life find out in the end they are sadly mistaken. Mr. Morris leaves to mourn his loss his wife, Mary and two daughters. Mrs. Charlotte Roach, of Dyke, and Miss Rosa Morris, who has so faithfully stayed with her father and cared for his every need until his last moments he left two sons, Jenus Morris, of March and Jonas Morris, of Dyke.

Both brothers that preceded to the other world were Benjamin and Nathaniel Morris of Pirkey. He had two sisters, Mrs. Rachel Morris and Mrs. Rebecca Shiflett of near Pirkey. The county has lost a good and useful citizen, his wife a loving husband, his children a kind father, the community a good neighbor. The burial took place on his farm in the presence of a large concourse of people; who come to pay the last tribute of respect to a good man. His funeral will be preached sometime during the summer months.

ARBUTUS MORRIS STEPHENS
Arbutus Morris Stephens, born May 9, 1933 in Dyke, Virginia peacefully departed this world on December 16, 2023. Arbutus will be remembered for her passion of gardening and cooking comfort food as well as a vigorous defense of her strongly held beliefs. She might have even been referred to as a "tadstubborn" on occasion. While not overtly emotional, she expressed her love by generously sharing the bounty from her enormous garden and by over-filling the bellies of her family and friends with country cooking, which was an integral part of her culture. A cup of coffee and a meandering conversation with a loved one, preferably in the glow of a woodburning stove, was her idea of a perfect moment; one that seemed to nurture her soul. She believed that simplicity was the ultimate virtue; that a neatly stacked pile of firewood was a work of art; that a heat pump was something to be despised and that technology was an unnecessary complication of life. In many ways she was the epitome of Tom Brokaw's "Greatest Generation." Arbutus was preceded in death by her parents Leonard and Louise Morris; her husband Horris Dabney Stephens; her sonHorace Wayne Stephens; and four sisters - Freddie Mae Morris,Geneva Morris, Juanita Shifflett and Flossie Watson. She is survived by her son, Bill Stephens (Lynda), daughter-in-law Patricia Stephens, grandchildren – Ahren Foster (Ryan), Meghan Stephens (and Eamon), Carson Stephens (Mattie), Patrick Stephens (Jackie), and Lauren Woodberry (Craig); great grandchildren – Addison, Hudson, Nellie, Benjamin, Rhett, Roselyn and Ella Jay; sisters – Rozenia Shifflett and Naomi Crawford; and numerous nieces and nephews. Visitation will occur at Anderson Funeral Home, 5888 St. George Avenue, Crozet, VA on Wednesday, December 27 from 5:30 to 8 p.m. A memorial service will be held at a later date.
