In Loving Memory of Scott Kevin Morris 1951 – 2025
Scott Kevin Morris, age 73, passed away on November 27, 2025. He was born in Akron, Ohio, and
raised in the Portage Lakes area before later making his home in St. Petersburg, Florida.
Scott was preceded in death by his parents, Frank and Francis Morris. He is survived by his loving wife
of 30 years, Svetla Morris; his brothers Greg Morris and Bruce (Linda) Morris; his daughter, Gretchen
Lindsey; his son, Christopher (Amy) Morris; his sons Anatoli Illiev and Kalin (Loni) Illiev; his
grandchildren William (Michael) Lindsey, Allana and Joey Annitto, Jaxson Morris, and Kiya Morris; and
his great-grandchildren Audrey Annitto and Levi Annitto.
Scott proudly served in the National Guard. He had a lifelong love for the water, fishing, and boating.
He loved telling stories and was known for having more lines than a fishing rod. He was easygoing, full
of fun and life, and will be remembered for his devotion to his family and his favorite saying: “Southside
Rules.”
A celebration of life service will be scheduled by the family at a later date.
Scott will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him
