Obituary: John F. McMorrow

John F. McMorrow, 78
John F. McMorrow died suddenly on Nov. 16 in Englewood, Fla. He was 78. 
Born in Boston, Jack grew up in West Roxbury and summered in Hull. He attended Boston Latin School and St. Sebastian’s School, class of 1959, and received a B.A./B.S. degree in finance from Boston College in 1963 and an M.B.A. from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
Jack’s corporate career included positions with RCA in Indiana, Polaroid in Boston, and Union Pacific Corp. in New York City. In midlife, he turned his skills to the nonprofit world of education, serving as CFO at the Council on Economic Education in New York City, the College of St. Joseph in Vermont, and St Mary’s Ryken in Maryland. In retirement, he continued his consulting work in financial and compliance for nonprofits and investment management.
He is survived by his wife of 54 years, Sheila; his children, John McMorrow, Christine McMorrow, and Tyler McMorrow; his sister, Joanne, and brother-in-law, Joe Struzziery; his brother, Bill, and sister-in-law, Judy McMorrow; and his nieces and nephews and their children. He was preceded in death by his parents, William and Joan McMorrow.
Jack was a good, kind man who thought of others above himself. He lived an honorable life strong in his faith, sense of responsibility, and love of his family, friends, and community. His dry sense of humor was his hallmark as he enjoyed checking in with everyone on his daily rounds and never missed the opportunity to make an amusing remark. He loved the warmth and greenery of Florida, was an eternal Boston sports fan, and became a model railroad enthusiast in the past few years. He will be truly missed by all who knew and loved him.
Relatives and friends are invited to visit with the family on Thursday, Dec. 12, 10:30-11 a.m., in St. Ann’s Church, 208 Samoset Ave., Hull. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated there at 11 a.m. Services will conclude with interment in Woodside Cemetery, Cohasset.

Obituary: William Parker Miller

William Parker Miller, 89
Former harbormaster William Parker Miller has died at the age of 89.
He was born on Dec. 21, 1929, in Boston to Lloyd Parker Miller and Ruth Olsen Miller and was raised in Hull with his three sisters Helen (Loraine), Lilian, and Ann, who all predeceased him. 
Space was limited in the family home during the Great Depression, and, because Loraine was an older half-sister, she moved in with an uncle and aunt, leaving the rest of the family to dwell in the crowded add-on rooms at the family business, an auto repair shop at the corner of U Street and Nantasket Avenue. In the early 1940s, the family moved to K Street, although they rented out that house each summer and moved back into the shop. 
The family business morphed into a boat business (Miller’s Marina), and William ran that business with his father and took over after his dad retired. He also worked as an electrician and mechanic at General Dynamics in Quincy and at various marinas along the South Shore. He was an electrician for Amtrak and retired in the 1990s. 
William, who served as harbormaster for Hull after his father’s tenure, had attended school in Hull until he was of high school age; at that time, Hull students went to Hingham High because Hull did not yet have a high school. 
At age 17, he joined the Naval Reserve through his high school. He remained in the Navy, achieving a CPO E7 Status, varying between reservist and active full-time until 1984 when he was piped off into naval retirement on the U.S.S. Constitution. He served actively in Europe during the Berlin Wall crisis of 1961-1962. 
William married Katherine A. Miller in 1960. They had one son, Robert P. Miller, and he adopted Katherine’s daughter, Lori Ann. The family resided in Hull from 1960 until a move to Marshfield in 1973. That year the family joined the Marshfield First Congregational Church. His previous church was the Hull Methodist in Hull Village. 
Ever an avid dancer, William took to country music. He also had a love for photography and was a photographer for the Massachusetts Country Music Awards Association in the 1990s and beyond. 
A lifelong Mason since 1953, William was a member of many Masonic orders and chapters on the South Shore, including the Konohasset Lodge, the Daniel Webster Lodge, and the Weymouth Masonic Lodge. He enjoyed attending dinners and meetings into the fall of this year. His photographic skills went to great use within his many Masonic groups. 
His wife of 38 years, Katherine Miller died in 1998. William leaves behind his son, Robert P. Miller and his wife, Sally Smart Miller; their daughter, Katherine Anne Miller; and his daughter, Lori Ann Morse; all reside in Connecticut. He is also survived by his godson and nephew, David P Willis, and nephews Richard C. Willis Jr., Gary J. Willis, John Simons, Bruce Simons, and William Simons and their spouses. 
Visiting hours will be on Saturday, Oct. 26, from 9-11 a.m., at the MacDonald Funeral Home, 1755 Ocean St., Marshfield, followed by a funeral service at the funeral home at 11 a.m. Services will conclude with burial and military honors in the Couch Cemetery.

Obituary: Trish Turner

Trish Turner
Boston-born artist Trish Turner lost her battle with cancer on Oct. 16. From a young age in Canton to her final days in Hull, she delighted in and interpreted the visual world onto thousands of colorful canvases.
Trish graduated magna cum laude from Framingham State College in 1974, with a double major in fine art studio and art history. Since then, she kept her art alive with many continuing education classes. In the late 1970s, she interned at the Richmond Art Center and the San Francisco Museum of Art in California. While there, she created promotional posters for nightclubs and so-called New Wave bands.
On returning to Boston, she began working in amateur video production, shooting live music and other nightclub events. This work led her to more formal training in video production. An internship at Boston Post Productions in 1990 involved a decade of scenic painting, styling, propping, and set-dressing.  
Styling credits include, among others, Jordan Marsh, Neiman Marcus, Elizabeth Grady, and Ports International. More recently, her talents have adorned the windows of Wellspring Multi-Service Center in Hull where she worked for 16 years. 
As a scenic painter, Trish freelanced for several production and theater companies, including the American Repertory Theatre, Emerson Theatre, the Wang, and the Huntington Theatre. As assistant in charge for the Mystic Scenic Studio, she designed and painted sets for the Boston Ballet, Big Apple Circus, Disney World, Disney Cruise Lines, Children’s Hospital, Museum of Fine Arts, and others. In addition, she styled corporate sets for several companies, including Lotus, Digital, EMC, Coors, Talbots, Honda, and Sheraton Hotels.
For the past 20 years, Trish lived in Hull, where she focused on her own work. During that time, she exhibited at the Hull Lifesaving Museum, Hull Artists Gallery, Simply Smiths in Cohasset, and the South Street Gallery in Hingham. Trish also participated in many open studio tours in Hull.  
Trish enjoyed painting and teaching with her “En Plein Air” students and continued her own studies of pastel and acrylic painting at the South Shore Art Center in Cohasset. Her work is on display in numerous private collections in Hull and beyond.
Trish was predeceased by her parents, Virginia and Patrick Turner, of Canton, and her sister, Judy Page of Jamestown, N.C.  She is survived by her sisters: Deb Annese and her husband, Joe, of Scituate; and Ginny Turner, of Centerville.  
Trish loved her many nieces: Melanie Legge (Bryan) and Angela Kelley (Gene), both of Scituate; Jessica Page, of Ohio; and Lillian Lowe, of Boston; nephews: Ian Lowe, of Centerville; and Zack Lowe (Tara), of Brighton; and grand-nieces: Maddy, Marion, Macie, and Ruby, and nephew Patrick. Finally, Trish leaves her large family of friends in Hull who supported her so lovingly through her final battle.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held at St. Nicholas United Methodist Church in Hull Village at 11:30 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 21.

Crystal M. Callahan, of Hull, passed away unexpectedly on Sept. 29. She was 35. 
Born in Dorchester, Crystal befriended many through the years and will be sorely missed. 
She is survived by her mother, Tammy Callahan, of Hull; her brother, Timothy Callahan, of Malden; her two children, John and Ava; and her Grandpa Joe. 
Those who predeceased her were her grandmother, Barbara Karas-Callahan; her father, Timothy H. Callahan; and her uncles, Joey and Billy Callahan.
Crystal was a waitress but liked to spend her spare time at Nantasket Beach, roasting her cares away in the sun.
A graveside service will be held at the Hull Village Cemetery on Oct. 17 at 11 a.m. Friends and family are all invited.
