Helen Louise Morris, age 91, passed away Sunday, January 1, 2017 at Brookdale Westerville. Helen was born April 26, 1925 in South Webster, Ohio to Alva E. and Mary (Crabtree) Hanes. In 1945 she married her high school sweetheart and World War II veteran, James J. Morris. They resided in Huntington, WV, and later in Westerville, OH and Winter Haven, FL. Wherever Helen lived she was well known for her great cooking (especially her fantastic pies), her sense of style, her well-tended yard, and the beautiful flowers she planted each summer. She was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She was preceded in death by her husband of 52 years, her parents, and her brother Bill Hanes. She is survived by her daughter Linda (Charles) Bombaci of Westerville, her granddaughter Gina (John T.) Peirce and great granddaughter Danica Peirce of Pittsburgh, her brothers Galen (Judy) Hanes of Wheelersburg and Bob (Ruth) Hanes of Ft. Pierce, FL, as well as by many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. Many thanks go out to the caring staff of Brookdale Westerville and Brookdale Hospice. Final arrangements are being handled by Hill Funeral Home, Westerville. Interment will be beside her husband in the National Cemetery at Bushnell, Florida. A Celebration of Helen’s Life will be held in the spring. Those who wish may make a donation in her memory to The Humane Society of Delaware County, 4920 State Rt. 37E, Delaware, OH 43015, or to their favorite charity.
