Sending our sincere condolences to the Overholt family, Dianne, Stacey and Chris. Morley hired my husband Peter to the Ministry of Education in 1973.

Although our paths didn’t cross often I have heard many wonderful stories of the adventures with Morley. He certainly made sure his days were filled with a lot of fun and excitement. Thinking of his friends, siblings and immediate family who most certainly are reminiscing about a beautiful life lived.
