Dad was the third of the five living children for Fred and Amelia Morlock. He fought in WWII and first saw action at Normandy. Following the War he attended machinist school on the G.I. Bill and went to work for the Chicago Belt Railroad like his father. He later worked for the Grand Trunk Western Railway and became a Locomotive Foreman there.

He loved to fish, enjoyed his bowling league, and used to love taking us for drives to the country after dinner. He and his father had this ongoing baseball rivalry between the White Sox and Cubs.

One of Dad's favorite lines was "I want to tell you one thing" as there were quite a few of those which made us chuckle.
