Malcolm S Morrison's Obituary
Malcolm Stuart Morrison June 11, 1947 – Aug. 9, 2013 Resident of San Francisco Malcolm Stuart Morrison, a genuine San Francisco architect, a decent and conservative man, and a beloved brother and friend to many, passed away on Friday, Aug. 9th, at the age of 66. Son of Dr. John G. and Mary Lou Morrison, he was reared in a loving home in the hills of Oakland, attended Skyline High School, and learned his profession at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Immediately after graduation, Mac began his career as a draftsman with the SF architecture firm of Lanier (Al) and Sherrill (Paul) Architects and Planners, and within three years became a named partner and lifelong friend of these two men and their families. Mac designed hundreds of residential and commercial structures around the Bay Area and Northern California. Architecture was his passion and attention to detail, function, and creative design were his handicraft. His work added significant value for his clients, many of whom blessed him with their repeat business over the years. Besides his work Mac loved golf, NFL football (49’ers), and was a family dominoes champion. One of six brothers he was preceded in death by brothers John K., Randolph C., and Douglas G. Morrison. He is survived by brothers Mark J. (Ginny) of Jacksonville, Florida, and Timothy B. Morrison of Richmond, California. His nieces and nephews, Emily Morrison Austin (Michael), John S. (Kristy), Samuel A., Christopher S. (Miran), and Scott A. Morrison (Jodi) loved him dearly and treasured his dry humor and friendship with “Uncle Mac”. We know he is in good hands, likely assisting the Father of All to improve “space” for all the saints who have passed. In lieu of flowers the family asks that support be given to The Salvation Army in Malcolm’s memory.
