Samuel Patteson Clarke (1966)
He was a charter member of Mount View Baptist Church.
Born April 1, 1935, in Charlottesville, he was the son of the late William Lewis Morris and Dencie Marshall Morris. He was also preceded in death by three brothers, George, James and Jerry.
Surviving him is one son, V. Elvest Morris Jr. and his wife, Karen, of Keswick. Also surviving are five sisters, Helen Carroll and her husband, Robert, of Buckingham, Charlotte Woodson and Teresa White of Charlottesville, Mary Coleman of Roanoke, Shirley Overstreet and her husband, Raymond, of Rocky Mount; and one brother, Lewis Morris of Goochland. He is also survived by his former wife, lifelong friend, and mother of his son, Marie Morris, of Keswick.
Elvest was always a hard worker, as a dry cleaner for the majority of his life, and in his later years, as a self -employed distributor for The Daily Progress. He continued to work until his health declined and he retired in 1999. He resided with his sister, Charlotte, who provided loving care and assistance.
Elvest was a passionate sports fan. He played high school baseball at McIntire High School, and played church and city league softball for many years, including participation on numerous championship teams.
He was a lifelong supporter of University of Virginia athletic programs, as well as a passionate fan of the New York Yankees, the Washington Redskins, and later in life, the Atlanta Braves.
The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the Palliative Care Unit at the University of Virginia Medical Center for their excellent care during his last days. The family would also like to pay tribute to a special resident, Dr. Niels Nielsen, for his compassionate care.
A funeral service will be held 2 p.m. Friday, October 27, 2006, at the chapel of Hill and Wood Funeral Home with the Reverend Dr. Clarke Hawkins officiating. Interment will follow at Monticello Memory Gardens.
The family will receive friends from 7 until 8 p.m. Thursday, October 26, 2006, at the funeral home.
