Donation Presented to the Children's Center for Communication and Development

December, 2007- Paul Laughlin, first vice president and trust officer for Trustmark National Bank, recently presented The University of Southern Mississippi's Children's Center for Communication and Development with a $770 check from the trustee of the John Morris Testamentary Trust.

The trust was set up for Morris' daughter, Ann Morris of Hattiesburg, who was mentally disabled and died in May. Laughlin said John Morris wanted the money, following his daughter's death, to be used for people who are in similar situations.
