It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Arthur Morrison, much loved husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle. Arthur died peacefully September 10, 2011 with his loving family by his side. Arthur will be deeply missed by his wife of 53 years, Jean; his daughter, Lorraine (Vance); son, Ross; grandson, Steven and niece, Linda. Art is predeceased by his parents Frederick and Bernice; Uncle Fred and Aunt Lilly; cousin Elmer and sister, Winnifred.Art was born in Rainy River Ontario, and grew up in and around Ottawa and Toronto. He served in the Royal Canadian Airforce during WWII and, following the war, worked for A. V. Roe's, Orenda Engines. While in Toronto, he met his wife Jean, eventually relocating to Richmond BC to be near Jean's family. While in Richmond, Art settled down to raise a family, working as a mechanical designer for Moore Canada. He retired in 1989 to enjoy his new role of grandfather. Art will be remembered as a modest, quiet and devoted family man. He was a lifelong learner with an endless curiosity about physics and mechanics. He had many hobbies and he took great pride in his resourcefulness and ability to create a custom-made tool for any occasion. Art spent many hours tinkering in his workshop on various projects. His work was always carefully and meticulously crafted. Art's family would like to extend their gratitude to Dr. You and the caring nursing staff at Richmond General Hospital. There will be no service by request. In lieu of flowers, donations to the BC Heart and Stroke foundation or to the Richmond Hospital Foundation would be greatly appreciated.
