In Memoriam: Morris Farrar

It is with great sadness that APCA reports the passing of Morris Farrar, founder of Farrar Construction, Inc., on July 23. Mr. Farrar served as APCA President and on the Board of Directors, and he and his wife, Bobbie, were active in the association for many years.

Mr. Farrar founded Farrar Construction, Inc., out of Dover, Oklahoma, which has continued to operate under ownership by his three sons, Randy, Mark, and Steve.

Services for Mr. Farrar will be held this Friday, July 27, in Dover, at the old High School Gymnasium, at 11 am. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations to the Dover School or to your favorite charity be made in his honor.
