He was born January 11, 1947 in Indianapolis to the late Lewis and Shirley (McClain) Morris.

Following high school, Rich served his country in the United States Navy, serving on the USS Randolph and USS Yorktown. Rich retired from Holland Trucking Company after 30 years of service and was a member of Teamsters Local 135.

Having had a passion for cars and trucks, Rich amassed a large collection of trucking memorabilia.

He enjoyed traveling, especially long road trips, and was an avid collector of antiques.
