Maurice loved reading, watching the Green Bay Packers football team, and playing board games- especially Dominos on family game nights. Maurice also cooked the best holiday dressing. Maurice will be deeply missed, he was a wonderful husband, father, brother, and uncle. He was also very proud of his son Maurice Jr., and his daughter Makayla "Suga Bear Johnson."
