Morris Irving Levorson, 91, of Lake Mills, Iowa, passed away on Saturday, December 16, 2017, at the Lake Mills Care Center in Lake Mills, Iowa.

Morris Irving Levorson was born on April 2, 1926, in Worth County to John and Elma (Hagen) Levorson. Baptized and confirmed at Somber Lutheran Church, he graduated from Lake Mills High School in 1944. On November 11, 1944, he married Truly Irene Ellingson at the Bristol Lutheran Church in rural Joice, Iowa. They were blessed with sixty-five years together before Truly passed away on October 7, 2009.

Morris served his country in the United States Army AirCor during World War II. For many years afterwards, he farmed and enjoyed flying his airplane. In 1989, he retired from Deluxe Products/Fleetguard Industries after working there for thirty years. After retiring, he enjoyed driving and delivering Winnebago Motor Homes, traveling, and always looking out for a new airplane to purchase. Moreover, he felt delighted to have his Mayo doctor give a prescription for dancing, a passion of his.
