Maurice was raised in Perry County and attended Perry County High School.  He served in the US Navy before marrying his wife of 62 years and moving to Greensboro where they raised three children.  He was employed by Georgia Pacific for 31 years before retiring to enjoy his favorite pastimes.  Maurice was an avid fisherman and bird hunter, craftsman and Alabama football fan.  He created and painted his own amazing fishing lures. But his favorite was being Pap to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  He was frequently seen riding the streets of Greensboro, Hale, and Perry counties visiting with family and friends.
