The following are some of the thoughts and wishes that were posted on Facebook.
It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our friend and long-time volunteer Tom Morris. He was larger than life in so many ways. Whatever role he had in Scouting, there is no doubt that he cared about the Scouts he served and would do whatever he could to make sure they were successful and had fun. We will miss you, Tom. Until we meet again.
