Edward "Ed" Morrissey was a Millbury sports legend. He coached many millbury athletes from Millbury Little League, The Millbury Merchants to the Millbury Jr/Sr High school varsity team. Ed was the type of coach you looked up to as a player. His wisdom in the game of baseball helped his teams succeed. If you we’re down he would pick you up with a quick joke and tell you what to do next time to succeed. There will never be another coach at Millbury High that will be more deserving of having their name on the home dugout than coach Ed Morrissey. Please sign and show your support!

The school committee is still dragging their feet and ignoring the legacy Ed built for our town. They think if they stay silent long enough we will just walk away but they clearly do not know how much this man meant to the athletes he mentored. Keep the pressure on them until they put his name on that dugout where it belongs.

The massive wave of support for Coach Morrissey proves that the people of this town finally see what the school board refuses to acknowledge. We are building real momentum against their stubborn refusal to honor a true legend.

I had the pleasure to be coached by this man from little league up to high school
Coach Morrissey deserves this honor! He was always patient with his players, and did a lot to teach us about the game he loved. This is a fitting way to recognize what he gave to Millbury Athletics.
Having Ed Morrissey's name on the dugout would be as much of an honor for the school and the field as it would be for him. Couldn't think of a more deserving tribute.
As a kid from another town playing for a Millbury team, no one deserves to be honored more than Ed.
My Uncle Ed was an amazing man and always stayed humble. He was a talented baseball player himself as well!
Great baseball coach
Great guy!

The game of baseball was my late husbands first live. He was dedicated to preserving the game. He wanted to pass on the love of the game to the next generation. Many of the young men in Millbury have been influenced in a positive way by learning to appreciate the “game”. Please honor the the ups and downs of life by the lessons taught by this game by honoring a man who devoted himself to helping young men in the game of life!
