Absolutely. How sad, really too young, but a life well lived, and a partnership of 50 years.

Pleasant journeys, Michael Morris, thou good and faithful servant. Brightest blessings on your spirit and your grieving family.

Qwerty was a good friend who we had lost touch with covid making it worse.

His health had been compromised through cancer and other complications.

He was my friend, was my dad's lawyer, a sparring partner, a person who made me think.

I am regretting we weren't chatting and I was unaware

He was one of our cast of characters on the original WC. I always enjoyed his contributions and his wit.

And I wondered why he named himself after the keyboard!

qwerty was a member here, too,.though not terribly active. He posted as recently as March 2020 per his profile.

Sorry to hear this. I didn't know him well, but he had a dry witty humour that came out from time to time that was exactly whst was needed.

H drove the bumblebee in the summer - a wonderful yellow sports car
He was a trout fisherman
He was a sailor
He was a crusty codger with a heart of gold
He loved his wife

Oh, how sad - I've just come across this, as I'm not here that often these days.......
My favourite name for him was Rumpole......

I remember meeting him at the Wondercafe picnic. I'd brought some Australian red wine with me and some vegemite. The vegemite wasn't a hit, but the wine was. Trouble was I only had a couple of bottles - so I just poured a small amount at the bottom of every glass.
Qwerty looked at the glass I handed him and said. " Just to let you know, in Canada, we leave that amount at the top, and fill the rest.."

We were surprised to see this. My husband and I were both FB friends with Michael. I knew he was having health issues. Sad news.

As the winter wind blows, i miss Qwerty's presence in wondercafe and online.
He was oft busy in the summer, off trout fishing or sailing, but, I have good memories of him at Christmas and during Lent.
Just thinking of him
