“Whoever did this really needs to come forward or whoever knows about this really needs to come forward because if it was your family you would want peace and justice," daughter Rachel Kerr said. "They left him like he was just a dog on the street."
Police believe Morris was hit by a gray Cadillac CTS-V, which fled the scene.
"Way too early to be taken, he had a lot more life to live," Kerr said.
