He served as an Air

the war he graduated from
the University of Alabama
where he earned a degree

the SAE fraternity. Following his graduation he
worked seventeen years
for Gulf States Paper
Company of Tuscaloosa,
AL. He was a bold visionary, creating Morrisette
Paper Company in 1962.
This very successful family

his simple yet powerful
philosophy - "We do what
we say we will do". That
spirit continues to this day
with 2nd and 3rd generation family members in
the business. His pioneer
spirit, along with his deep
love of the land, subsequently led to the creation
of Chateau Morrisette

Morrisette Catfish Farm
in 1995 in Alabama.
He was a member of the
Greensboro Country Club,
Capital Investment Club,
Holy Trinity Episcopal
Church, a strong supporter with passion for the
Greensboro Grasshoppers,
former member of the
Greensboro Kiwanis Club,
and a weekly participant
of John Willett’s Bible
Study. William will be forever remembered as a true
southern gentleman, reflective of his Alabama
heritage.
