Born on Sept. 27, 1944, Clinton lived a life of a hardworking and giving man. He would help anyone that he met who needed help regardless. He believed that you had to work hard in life in order to have anything. His first priority was always taking care of his family. He was a proud man of his bunch and loved each and every one of them.

Clinton was preceded in death by his parents, Lewis and Lona Morris; sisters, Lily Sweatt, Edna Lee, and Lucille Smith; grandson, Ryan Sellers; and his dog, Paco.

Left to cherish his memory include his loving wife of 55 years, Dorothy Morris; daughters, Lynn Bush of Red Level, Mona Halford (the late Jake Halford) of McKenzie, and Angelica Arnold-Watson of Opp; and brothers, Carl (Joyce) Morris and Clifton (Judy) Morris. He had 11 grandchildren, Brittany Tolbert, Holly (Adam) Raines, Fred Shipp, Hollie Shipp, Travis Shipp, Brandon (Tatum) Sellers, Josh (Jennifer) Sellers, Cameron (Tabitha) Sellers, Kacey (Raymond) Smith and Kristy (Josh) Bates; 26 great-grandchildren; and three great-great grandchildren on the way.

Clinton loved to hunt, fish, and take care of all of his animals, including his cows; his bull, Bill; his chickens, and his beloved dog, Mollie. He retired from South Alabama Gas after 47 years.
