Paul Ray Morris

06/27/1974 – 06/22/2024

Paul lost a valiant fight with pancreatic cancer, we are heartbroken by his passing but strengthened by his courage.

Born to Frank L. Morris III and Cynthia Weirsbowski Morris in Nashville, TN

Paul was such a curious child he never missed anything. He got more out of a trip than anyone else in the family because he noticed birds, dogs, trees and loved people. He loved Boy Scouts, karate and most of all, skateboarding. As an adult, Paul owned his own car detailing company, he was a DJ, rapper, managed car washes, his last job was serving subpoenas.

Paul was very devoted to the grandparents who raised him, Frank and Sylvia Morris (Mawmaw and Pappa).

Paul married the love of his life, Tracy Palubicki on 06/30/18.

“Tracy is the best thing that ever happened to me” Paul Morris 03/18/24

Paul, I will forever miss your wacky humor. Love Auntie Rachel (hot tea)

Paul Morris and his friend David Cheatham, July 4, 1986.

Cordie’s 100 Year Old Milk Pitcher

This milk pitcher was given to Cordie Davis for her 5th birthday, in 1910, making it more than 100 years old.

Sylvia Morris wrote this note about the pitcher in 2007:

This milk pitcher was given to my mother Cordie Mae Davis for her birthday when she was 5 years old. She lived in the home of Nannie Sue Carrol and Mrs. Carrol served as a grandmother figure. She told my mother that she was giving her a present that would turn yellow with age. My mother cherished the pitcher and told me the story many times over the years.
