CLINT ROBERT MORRIS

1973-2025

Clint, 52, passed away at his home due to a horse-riding accident the evening of September 30, 2025. Born July 2, 1973, in Denver, Colorado, Clint lived a life defined by hard work, deep family ties, and a passion for the open road.

Clint built a career that reflected his dedication and resilience. He worked as an over-the-road truck driver for several of the valley trucking companies and later became a dump truck owner operator followed by a log truck owner operator. His skills extended to local trucking, a profession that suited his strong work ethic and love for being behind the wheel. Whether hauling freight across long distances or navigating rugged terrain with his truck, Clint took pride in every mile he traveled.

Outside of work, Clint found joy in the outdoors. He was an avid bow hunter who cherished time spent in nature. Working with horses brought him peace and connection to his kids. These pursuits were more than hobbies-they were part of who he was.

Clint’s greatest devotion was to his family. He is survived by his wife Michele (Palin-Cassidy) Morris, daughters Lynnlee and Cienna, sons Lance Morris and Shawn Cassidy of Augusta. Stepdaughter Crystal Opat (Chavez) and Stepson Ruben Chavez of Corvallis; 7 grandchildren and a great granddaughter. His mother Jay Fowler of Hamilton Sister Amber Needles, Brother Shannon Morris; three nieces and a nephew; and uncle and aunt and a cousin.

He was preceded in death by his father Robert Morris; stepfather Ted Merwin; uncles Fred Nelson and Art Pyles; baby brother Shane Morris and son Jerry Cassidy.

Clint held many roles throughout his life-husband, father, stepfather, son brother nephew, cousin, best friend, buddy, mentor- and he embraced each with loyalty and heart. He loved his family deeply and will be missed by the many people whose lives he touched over the years.

A memorial service will be held in Hamilton at the Daly Leach Memorial Chapel 1010 W Main Street Sunday October 12th at 11am with reception to follow.

May his memory bring comfort to those who knew him or knew of him.
