" And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain; for the former thing are passed away. Revelation 21:4
Lawrence Edward Morris, II, affectionately known as "BOO" departed this life on Thursday , April 19, 2018.  He was born June 9, 1974, in Bogalusa, LA.  "BOO" was raised in Varnado, LA and later became a resident of Bogalusa, where he joined the Greater Ebenezer Baptist Church under the leadership of Dr. Raymond E. Mims.
He was a 1992 graduate of Varnado High School.  While attending high school, he was a student athlete who excelled at football for the Wildcats.  All who knew him knew that he was very passionate about his alma mater.  He could often be found cheering for the Wildcats on the sidelines or sharing his love and pride for his team willing to listen.
After high school "BOO" attended Southern University A&M college in Baton Rouge,LA.  He later entered the work force as a construction worker. At the time of his death he was employed with Schlumberger.
"BOO" had a smile that was charming, friendly, and contagious.  There was never a time that you would not see him without a smile or making someone laugh.  He was very outgoing, kindhearted, and just a loveable, joking person.  In his spare time, "BOO" enjoyed hunting and cooking-barbecuing and frying fish to name a few.  He was a dedicated father to his girls; they were the sparkle of his eyes.  "BOO" was also a caring husband, loyal brother, devoted son, and respected uncle.  He was lovingly known as "Uncle Boo" to all of his  nieces and nephews that admired his warm, enjoyable spirit.
