DEATH OF ARTHUR MORRIS



Durban artist Arthur Morris died on October 8, after falling from a ladder, just two days before his 90th birthday.

Morris, who was also an art restorer, was a former Durban city councillor, pilot and flight instructor. The fall caused a blood clot on the brain which proved to have caused too much damage to be operable. He had had many health issues over the years with advanced kidney disease, skin cancer and back problems.
