Mr. David Morton's Obituary
David Jay Morton, age 58, passed away on Sunday, January 5, 2020 in Shelbyville, Tennessee. David was born on March 18, 1961 in Erin, Tennessee.
David was an avid fisherman. He loved spending time fishing and would brag about his catches – although, he would never keep what he caught; he always released for someone’s else enjoyment. He was lovingly referred to as a “computer geek” and had the ability to fix almost anything when it came to computers. His family remembers him as a “fighter” and always cherished the life that he was blessed with.
He is preceded in death by his wife, Michelle Morton; father, David Morton; brother, Kenneth Morton; sister, Juli Morton.
David is survived by his mother, Nancy (Clark) Morton; sons, Thomas Jeffrey Morton and Anthony David Hines; siblings, Jerri Morton, Leigh Morton, and Richard Morton; two grandchildren. Mr. Morton is also survived by a host of relatives and friends.
A memorial service will be scheduled later.
Spring Hill Funeral Home & Cemetery, 5110 Gallatin Road, Nashville, TN 37216 has been entrusted with the final care of Mr. Morton. www.springhillfh.com
