Robert Allen Morris, 58, formerly of West Seneca, N.Y., died peacefully on April 2, 2016, at Haven Hospice in Chiefland, Fla., after a long struggle with cancer.
Bob was born on Dec. 31, 1957, to Jack and Barbara Morris. He grew up in West Seneca, N.Y., and graduated from West Seneca East Senior High School. Bob lived for many years in Sherman, N.Y., before finally settling in Bell, Florida.
Bob was accomplished in all of the building trades, equally competent using heavy equipment and welding as in plumbing, wiring, and woodworking. Bob was easy-going, friendly and well-liked by all who knew him.
Bob is survived by his long-time partner, Laura Vario, and her son, Nic McBride, as well as his brother, J. Bradford Morris, his sisters, Deborah Oliver and Barbara Schley, his four children Jessica, James, Julia, and Teddie Morris, his four grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
