Connie Morris Obituary
Connie L. Morris, 67 of Salem went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, April 8, 2023 after a noble fight against cancer. She was born in Ravenna, Ohio on April 26, 1955. She was the daughter of Charles Reno and Dorothy (McKenzie) Gibson.
Connie was the Owner of Ohio News and Lottery with her husband. She loved the Lord and accepted Jesus as her savior. She was a member of the Salem First United Methodist Church, and a life member of VFW Post 892. She was one of the biggest Denver Bronco fans, a creative cook who enjoyed finding new recipes, she was known for decorating for every holiday, especially at Christmas when the street would line up with cars just to see their outdoor display, she enjoyed watching Hallmark movies, reality tv shows, shopping, spending warm days on her front porch, and going to the beach. Her hospitality and joy for bringing people together made her the heart of family gatherings either at her home, a lake, or hosting a picnic at the park. Her biggest investment and joy was being a mother and spoiling her grandkids. However, her favorite part of life was being a wife to her high school sweetheart and the love of her life, Lou.
Survivors include her husband Lewis Morris, whom she would have celebrated 50 years of marriage with this July, Daughters, Dorothy (Matthew) Leyman of Salem, Connie (Joshua) Jackson of Centerburg, Ohio, grandchildren, Gabriel Leyman, Ethan Jackson, Elizabeth Jackson and Alexander Jackson.
