Max Morelock Obituary, Death Cause – On March 5, 2023, Samuel Max Morelock, who was from Greeneville, Tennessee, and had 19 years of age, passed away in the Greeneville Community Hospital. His survivors include his parents, Maxi Douthat and Lewis Morelock; his sister, Abbi Morelock; his grandparents, Terry and Judy Douthat and Sammy and Diana Morelock; his aunt and uncle, Karleen and Paul Kilday; his great-uncle and great-aunt, Chris and Page Douthat; his cousins, Maddie Kilday, Amie Douthat Goins, and Christopher Douthat; and his paternal and paternal great-grandparents, Terry and Judy Douthat.
All of his great-grandparents, including RJ and Mary Sue Knight, Max and Margie Douthat, Bob and Lois Smith, Carl and Dorothy Morelock, and RJ and Margie Douthat, passed away before he was born. Max, who was fondly referred to as “Bubby” by those who loved him, was a native of Greeneville and had spent his youth there. These people called him “Bubby.” He started his schooling at Greeneville High School, where he graduated with his high school diploma, then continued it at Walter State Community College.
In addition to being a passionate fly fisherman, he also worked in construction with his buddy Berry and his boss Berry, where they had a lot of laughs and accomplished a lot together. Home for Max may be found in the adjacent hills or along the banks of any of the nearby streams. You might find him there, engaged in the pursuits that gave him the greatest sense of fulfillment. When I got to know Max well, I couldn’t help but fall in love with him and his kind, compassionate heart. He was a fantastic friend to many people, and he will be missed dearly by each and every one of those individuals.
Between the hours of four and seven o’clock on Friday, members of the family will be available at Jeffers Funeral Service in the downtown area to meet and greet guests. Funeral services will be performed on Saturday morning at 11 o’clock in the morning at the Asbury United Methodist Church, and the Reverend Jerry Jones will serve as the presiding minister.
