Sam graduated in the first class of Toms River High School North in 1971. He was an excellent student, an outstanding athlete at basketball and track, and loved the arts. Upon graduation, Sam worked for Toms River Chemical and The Law Offices of Leonard G. Lomell. However, that was not enough for an ambitious man like Sam.
He was determined to make his abilities and skills known; therefore, he became the owner and operator of Sam Morris Landscaping and later established as The Lawnman.
In his spare time, Sam loved watching sports on TV, spending time with family, and the skill of graphic arts, in which he created SamMo Graphics with the assistance of Shutterfly.
Sam created small personal items for family and friends to enjoy. Graphic Design was a hobby Sam worked on in the latter years of life.
Sam was predeceased in death by his parents, Jack and Mamie Morris, and brothers Frank, Willie, and Al Morris. He is survived by his wife, Corine Morris; three wonderful children, Anthony, Torey, and Tara Morris; sisters Betty Harris, Dorothy Brown, and Rose Booth; brother Ostelle Morris; brothers and sisters-in-law, daughters-in-law, and a host of grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
