Aaron Morrison, Jr. (62) made his heavenly transition on Saturday, September 11, 2021, in Dr. P. Phillips Hospital in Orlando, Florida. He was born to Aaron and Ruby Morrison in Tallahassee, Florida. He set many memorable milestones during his lifetime. He was born in the historical Florida A&M University Hospital that eventually merged with Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. He became one of two blacks to integrate public schools, Caroline Brevard Elementary, in Leon County, Florida in the 1960s. He was chosen due to his high academic achievements and creative talents in many areas. Photography, health, and politics were more like hobbies to him. He kept family and friends updated and frequently educated in all three of these areas. He served as a master photographer for Florida A&M University and attended classes while working on campus. Aaron most recently contracted with Windmar Solars as a salesman.

He was preceded in death by his father Aaron Morrison, Sr. and maternal grandfather, Eph McQueen and maternal grandmother, Queen Victoria McQueen. On Friday, September 17, 2021, Aarons mother transitioned as well, in Dallas Texas.

Aaron leaves to mourn his transition, Joene Crooks; a sister, Geraldine "Geri" Kelly (James); two brothers, Rex Tyrone Morrison (Gina); Reginald Gerard Morrison and one "god-brother", Roy Williams. He also leaves two nieces: Yolanda Ervin; and Regina Wilkins (Charles); two nephews; Marlon and David Morrison; a great-niece, Olivia Wilkins and a great-nephew, Charlie Wilkins. The impact that Aaron had on family and friends has been amazing. Friends include Scott McCoy, Chris Lim, Dennis Daugherty, Rexeen Frazier, Larry Weiss, Robert Smith, Kim Dang, Yvonne Sandoval and a host of very committed friends.
