Bob & Makanah Morriss
Bob was born in Staunton, VA and grew up in Salisbury, MD. He received his BA from Hampden Sydney College and a M.Div. from Union Presbyterian Seminary. He was a Licensed Professional Counselor for twenty years before entering the Unitarian Universalist (UU) ministry. Makanah grew up in Westport, CT before attending Sweet Briar College for her A.B. She also has graduate degrees in Counseling and in Religion and was ordained as a U.U. minister in 1982. Bob has served congregations in Germantown, PA and Winchester, MA; Makanah served congregations in Richmond, VA, Wilmington, DE as well as serving on the Staff of the UUA in Boston. Together they served as co-ministers of the UU Congregation in Cheyenne, WY before their retirement and move to Forest in 2006.
Bob has two adult children and two (almost young adult) grandchildren living in NJ. Bob enjoys music and singing (Jefferson Choral Society), growing organic vegetables, and birding. He is looking forward to enjoying the nature trails as well as opportunities to play pool and to enjoy a friendly poker game.
Makanah enjoys being active with several denominational groups, gaining new insights about spirituality and psychology from reading and workshops, and spending time with her retired mare in Forest. She is looking forward to gentle walks on the nature trails and finding volunteer opportunities on campus as well as within the Lynchburg area.
