Alliance Leader David Ford MLA and Deputy Leader Naomi Long MP have expressed their condolences following the death of former Deputy Leader Addie Morrow. Addie served as a Councillor on Castlereagh Council and in the 1982 Assembly.
David Ford MLA said: “Addie was a founder member of Corrymeela and was active in Alliance from the very beginning of the Party. His whole life was a practical demonstration of his commitment to peace and reconciliation.
“He was a huge inspiration to many of us now in the leadership of the Party.
“On behalf of everyone in Alliance, I would like to express my sympathies to his wife Nancy and his children and grandchildren.”
Naomi Long MP said: “I was very saddened to hear of Addie’s passing. He was a great servant to the people of East Belfast and worked tirelessly for the promotion of community relations.
“I would like to express my condolences to the whole Morrow family. I know he will be sorely missed by everybody in Alliance and further afield.”
