Gevontae Daeron Morrison...Some call him son, few call him dad, others brother, uncle or friend, many consider him family and he is most affectionately known as Tae aka Xhop. Most importantly, he is loved. Taken away from this earthly vessel at the young age of 26 on Monday, September 11, 2023. Gevontae was born on February 5, 1997 to Tiffanie Marsh and George Morrison, Jr., both of Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Gevontae was always joking around, he was everyone's backbone. If you needed anything, Tae was the person to call, it didn't matter what it was for he always showed up for those he loved. He was a confidant to many, trustworthy and dependable. He was the person you always wanted to keep in your circle, he was just that good of a friend. A humble, loving, silly giant, whose energy was contagious. He demanded respect, a true king that many looked up to. In his free time, he enjoyed time with his family, the one he was born in to and the family he made through bonds. His children were his everything, they held a special place in his heart that no one could compare to. Gevontae was at every function, if he didn't do anything else, he supported his people! He was outspoken, bold, and fearless, anything he set his mind to was sure to happen. His smile, memories and incomparable love will forever be cherished.

Gevontae was preceded in death by his grandmother, the light of his life, Frankie Marsh Patterson; grandfather, Tyrone Peterson and his best friend who was more like a brother, Darryl Rice, Jr.
