In Memoriam: Dr. David Richard Morrison
Foxen's mother met Morrison's wife, Joan, in nursing school and the families remained close through the years. Foxen remembers his sister having her appendix removed by the doctor, and remembers himself waking up in Morrison's office after a baseball knocked him unconscious. In 1998, Foxen returned to Chicago to care for his mother and visited Morrison at the lab to wish him well in his upcoming retirement. "He showed me around and we talked about what he was doing at the lab," said Foxen. One thing led to another, and Foxen took the position a few months after Morrison left.
"He was someone who demonstrated commitment to generosity," said
Foxen of the late Dr. Morrison. The time Morrison spent with his 14 adopted
children, 23 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren was without a doubt
"one of his great pleasures," Foxen said, adding that during
retirement, the health problems that had led Morrison to stop working,
including vision problems, improved noticeably. "He became almost
a new man -- healthier and happier. He knew how to enjoy his retirement,"
said Foxen. "It makes me look forward to mine."

From Daily Herald, Monday, June 20, 2005 Fermilab's quest to keep power By Tona Kunz Scientists are like cowboys rushing to the newest frontier. While the Wild West of high-energy physics rests at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory right now, scientists increasingly are hearing the call of western Europe, where a machine with seven times the power of Fermilab's top accelerator will fire up in 2007.
Fermilab officials said they can ride out the opening of the European consortium CERN's Haldron collider in Switzerland until 2009. But as the decade closes, Fermilab's big research projects either will end or run out of money.

Good Morning!
To be Fermilab Director, living and working at the laboratory, is to be completely immersed in the laboratory and its community, more so even than for similar positions at other laboratories. Fermilab benefits greatly from the support and dedication of people in all of its parts, and as director I have enjoyed this extraordinary support for the last six years. I hope to see as many as possible of you in my last days here to thank you in person, but I cannot possibly reach everyone who deserves it. So let me use this forum to express my gratitude for all you have done for the laboratory, and for me. I also am giving Beth an opportunity to speak to the laboratory: "I want to join Michael in thanking the Fermilab community for making our six years here so exciting and memorable. Although I've enjoyed meeting and getting to know many of you, my life has been most directly affected by the work of the excellent staffs of the Children's Center, the Housing Office, Roads and Grounds, Chez Leon, Shipping and Receiving, FESS, and of course, the Directorate: you are the people who, with good cheer and good grace, have made it easy for us to live here. Michael and I grew up in Ohio and lived in the Midwest into our twenties: to live again surrounded by the trees, flowers, birds, and bugs we knew as children has been a great pleasure. It has been a wonderful bonus to be able to give our daughter, Lily, the opportunity to learn to love a Midwestern place of her own, a place with a prairie.
Thanks to all of you for welcoming us into the Fermilab family."
