1958 – 2015

PORTLAND — David W. “Mossy” Morse, 56, a resident of River Road, Livermore, passed away Thursday, June 18, at Maine Medical Center.

He was born on July 25, 1958, in Lewiston, the son of Linwood Morse and Constance “Connie” (Morris) Morse. David graduated from Livermore Falls High School in 1976.

David was very proud to have worked for Bath Iron Works for 35 years. He loved his Bath family. He also worked a few different jobs, pruning trees, packing apples and was a carpenter. He enjoyed working on the farm, taking rides, assembling models, reading, watching old western movies and launching rockets and fireworks with his family and friends.

David loved antiques and could never pass up a yard sale or a tent sale. He could see the beauty in things others may pass. The world has lost one of its kindest, gentlest souls. He was the sweetest man anyone could ever know, and would give you the shirt off his back. David was a friend to everyone and had no enemies anywhere. He loved children and was called Uncle Dave by many.

He is survived by his two sisters, Linda Morse of Livermore and Carol Roy and her companion, Richard Damon, of Livermore; one brother, Steven L. Morse of Livermore; niece, Mia Blais and her husband, Warren; nephew, Jonathan Morse and his companion, Tara Legere; great-nephew, Dakota Blais; and great-niece, Destiny Blais.

He was predeceased by his parents; brother, Michael Morse; niece, Michelle; nephew, Eric; and brother-in-law, Michael Roy.
