The late Carl
Morris was a man who believed in his community and in
education. To honor his dedication to both, his family has
established the Carl R. Morris Memorial Scholarship.
Carl Morris was born and reared in Calhoun County and
graduated from West Virginia University with a Bachelor of
Science degree in geology and a minor in mathematics. A
World War II veteran, he worked in the oil and gas industry,
owned the Calhoun Chronicle, and was the first real estate
broker in Calhoun County. Morris and his wife, Helen, were
the parents of seven children and 16 grandchildren. Mrs.
Morris continues to enjoy spending time with her family as
they attempt to honor Carl.
The Robert H. Mollohan Family Charitable Foundation, Inc.
and the family of Carl Morris are pleased to offer the Carl
R. Morris Memorial Scholarship to support the perpetuation
of the values that West Virginia gave to Carl and that he
returned unsullied, values that he lived by and died by, to
keep and pass on to future generations.
