Morrows continue to inspire others

I was pleased to read April 8 the front-page article on the incredible generosity of Ed and Betty Morrow’s donation of the historic Morrow Building to the Greater Everett Community Foundation.

I had the good fortune to have been placed in Ed Morrow’s sixth grade class at Everett’s Whittier Elementary in 1960. As a young teacher, Ed served as a great role model for his students in the classroom and on the playfield. He was inspiring, fair, humorous, compassionate, generous and kind. Ed Morrow is my all-time favorite teacher and he continues to inspire me today.

Congratulations to Ed and Betty Morrow for continuing to serve as outstanding role models for us all.
