Morton's death hits close to home


But Morton will be most remembered by members of the UNC family for his contributions closer to the center of the state - both as a photographer of UNC sporting events and as a friend to nearly everyone he met. "He was really a bright man who helped the University and helped people, and we'll miss him," said former Tar Heel basketball coach . "But he had a full life at 85. He was special to all of us."
