William “Bill” James Morrow, 82, formerly of Giddings, Texas, was called home by Jesus on the afternoon of Sunday, November 15, 2020, at a nursing home in Schulenberg. A private memorial service will be held at the Giddings City Cemetery at a later date. William “Bill” Morrow was born on June 17, 1938 in Belfast, Ireland to William and Mary (Steenson) Morrow. During his early adult years, Bill served as a Sergeant with the Police Service of Northern Ireland, then accepted the position of Manager of Housekeeping for a large hospital in Saudi Arabia. In the mid-1980’s, Bill moved to Austin, Texas where he met Lavonne Droemer and they were married on January 28, 1989 in Giddings. After making Giddings his home, Bill started Morrow Cleaning Service which he ran for many years. Bill was a true people person and enjoyed socializing. He also enjoyed road trips and taking drives around the county to sample local restaurants. Bill enjoyed helping others and for many years delivered Meals on Wheels in the Giddings area. In addition, he collected fans and was known to joyfully give them to those in need during hot Texas summers. One of the highlights of Bill’s life was his acceptance of Christ as his Savior and being baptized. Bill loved his church family and attended Bible study on a regular basis. He frequently was heard saying, just “Trust and Obey”. Bill leaves behind his wife, Lavonne Morrow, family members in Texas and Nevada, as well as family and friends in Ireland. Memorials may be made to the Giddings Public Library or the charity of one’s choice.
