Fondly known as “Corky” by those close to him, he proudly served his country in the US Marines during the Vietnam War. He retired in 2005 from the South Bend Fire Department after 32 years of service. During his time there, he was proud of his cooking and was known to pull pranks on his brothers at the station. Maurice loved to hunt, fish, and golf. He was generous beyond compare and would give you the shirt off his back. He was loved by all who knew him and he loved "his village." Above all else Maurice loved his family. “No monkey-shine, keep your nose clean.” Funeral services for Maurice are currently pending.
