A Celebration of a Life Well Lived

He graduated with the class of 1955 from Beach High School before attending Iowa State University in Ames, IA. He cherished the lifelong friendships made at the Phi Kappa Psi house and thought the movie Animal House was written about his fraternity. At ISU, he met the true love of his life, Sandra Taylor, and they married on July 2nd, 1960.
Con and Sandy moved to the Short Ranch and made it their home, raising their three children – Don, Dave and Sarah. Their home in Beach, ND, and the Short Ranch were always open to other family and friends, many of them becoming part of the family, including Doug Northrop, Clint Cook and Mike Houle. After 45 years of ranching, Con and Sandy moved to Marshalltown, IA, to run Taylor’s Maid-Rite.
Con served in the ND Air National Guard, was a member of the ND Stockmen’s Association, and served on the Medora Grazing Association and ND Brand Boards. He was instrumental in starting the Beach ambulance service, and in later years, he
faithfully supported the local Beach coffee shops and Taylor’s Maid-Rite.
Con and Sandy loved collecting North Dakota and Red Wing Pottery. Con was the second president of the North Dakota Pottery Collectors Society and was a 38-year member of the Red Wing Collectors Society. He and his son Dave gave many seminars about Red Wing stoneware – which Con considered to be the hottest ticket at the annual conventions –
and their entertaining banter and enthusiasm for Saltglaze would fill the room. He and Sandy always sat in the front row of the auctions, hands held high. They have acquired a second family of NDPCS and Red Wing members whose friendships are truly priceless.
Con’s love of life was infectious, and he took great pride in his family and their accomplishments. He considered his greatest achievement his children, grandchildren, and many friendships. He never met a stranger and would talk to anyone, whether they wanted to chat or not. Con had a gift for making everyone around him feel special. To say he will be missed is an understatement.
He is survived by his wife of 56 years, Sandy, and their three children – Don (Julie), Des Moines, IA; Dave (Tani), Mesa, AZ; Sarah (Steve) Sarbacker, Sioux Falls, SD; and Doug Northrup, Des Moines, IA. Grandchildren – Zac and Lexi Short, Isaac and Lydia Sarbacker, and Avery Short.
Sisters – Anne (Ken) Johnson, Larimore, ND; Connie (Paul) McDonald, Bedford, TX; Suzi (Dan Dinkle) Williams, Bismarck, ND; Sister-In-Law – Marlene Taylor, Marshalltown, IA. And numerous nieces and nephews and their children.
In death, he will join parents Don and Edith Short and in-laws Don and Polly Taylor, and brother-in-law Ken Johnson.
Family visitation will be held Friday, July 22, from 12:30-2:00PM, with a memorial service to follow, both at Mitchell Family Funeral Home in Marshalltown.
Con always hoped to make the world a better place by simply being kind and generous to others. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to the Marshalltown Salvation Army or to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

Dale Garrison Morris, 77, of Claremont, beloved husband, dad, grandpa, great-grandpa and friend to many, died unexpectedly of a heart attack on Saturday, Nov. 7, in Madison, Wis., while visiting family in Waunakee.
Dale was born Sept. 3, 1938, to Garrol and Grace (Evans) Morris at the Hefron Farm in Danesville, located in the rural Byron area. He graduated from Claremont High School in 1956 and later served in the Army Reserves from 1957-1963. He married his wife of 55 years, Karen Hondl, on Oct. 1, 1960.
Dale and Karen were blessed with five children: Sue, Steve, Lynne, Kevin “Butch” and Jeff. Dale worked at Deml’s Garage and Bixby Creamery, and also enjoyed being the owner of his own business, Dale’s Dairy Supply, where he proudly sold and serviced DeLaval products. Dale was also a lifelong dairy farmer (if only at heart), farming on the family farm just north of Claremont. Even after Dale and Karen sold the farm and moved into Claremont, Dale continued his love of farming by collecting antique farming memorabilia, especially John Deere and DeLaval items. He enjoyed showing off his tractors at area parades and events. Dale later worked as a bus driver for the Triton School District, retiring at the end of the 2013-2014 school year. In addition to collecting antique farming memorabilia, Dale was a collector of so much more, including pottery, Western memorabilia, and especially items from Claremont. Walking into Dale and Karen’s home is like walking into the Claremont Museum, and Dale was always ready and willing to be your tour guide.
Dale’s passion for local history led him to be active in organizations such as the Dodge County Historical Society and the Rice Lake Church Restoration Group. Dale’s service in the Reserves also created a passion for preserving military and veterans history, and he was active in the Claremont American Legion Post 422 and in the creation of the Wasioja Civil War Memorial. Additionally, Dale loved taking care of his lawns, and lovingly tended the nearby St. Francis de Sales Catholic Cemetery and Hillside Cemetery for many years where he served on the board. Dale was also involved in many other organizations, including the Masonic Lodge No. 11, the Dodge County Fair Board, the Lions Club, the Red Wing Collectors Society, and the Watt Collectors Association, among others. Dale was the Claremont Chamber of Commerce Citizen of the Year in 1995.
He is survived by his wife, Karen; five children, Sue (Roy) Edge of Stewartville, Steve (special friend Mary Rudlong) Morris of Kasson; Lynne (Rob) Quesnel of Waunakee, Wis.; Kevin “Butch” (Peggy) Morris of Byron; and Jeff (Melissa) Morris of Byron; six grandchildren, Robyne (Taylor) Muscatel of Renton, Wash., Daniel “Boone” (Brooke) Quesnel of Kirkland, Wash., Ashley Catlin Morris of Byron, Sam Edge of Stewartville, Gracie Morris of Byron, and Autumn Morris of Kasson; great-granddaughter, Sara Nelson; three brothers, Carrol (Ellen) Morris of Rochester, David (Barbara) Morris of Portland, Ore., and Richard Morris of Kasson; two sisters, Barbara (Harry) Smith of Belvidere, Ill., and Sandra McDonald of Neillsville, Wis.; and many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Garrol and Grace Morris; and brothers, Donald and James Morris.
Visitation will be at Michaelson Funeral Home on Thursday from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. and at St. Frances DeSales Catholic Church on Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. Funeral services will be held Nov. 13, at 10:30 a.m. at St. Frances DeSales Catholic Church, with Father Thein Nguyen officiating.
