Dan was a beloved family man, engaged in many community organizations, and public servant. He stands out as a role model that we can all look to for inspiration. Allegany County has lost a great friend and community member with the passing of Dan Guiney.
Maude Augusta MORLEY, 98, of Ulysses, PA, died Saturday, February 10, 2024 in UPMC Cole, Coudersport. Born September 23, 1925, in Middletown, NY, she was the daughter of Mack Budd and Eugertha Everitt Morley. On September 17, 1948, in Middletown, she married George Olmsted Morley, who predeceased her on June 24, 2021. A 1944 graduate of Goshen High School and a 1948 graduate of Fredonia State University of New York, she was a teacher at Ulysses Elementary and Northern Potter Children’s School. Maude was a member of Delta Kappa Gamma Society. She was a member of the Ulysses Methodist Church, United Methodist Women, and held many leadership positions. Maude and George were active members of the Ulysses Senior Center.
Maude was blessed by God with many talents and was a natural-born leader with the ability to confidently take charge with proficiency in many organizations and events. She had a winning personality that radiated love to all people through her many acts of service. Her life revolved around family, church, music, and school.
Maude was a woman of faith whose actions exemplified the love of God and the saving grace of His Son, Jesus Christ. Upon entering Fredonia State Teachers College, Maude became active with a church and the Student Christian Movement on campus eventually becoming their president and the state secretary. After her marriage to George, the love of her life, they settled in Ulysses in 1953 within sight of the Methodist Church. Church attendance and involvement were essential parts of their growing family.
Because Maude loved children, she decided to get a degree in elementary education. After having nine children, she decided to start her teaching career in the fall of 1960. Except for time off to have one more child, Maude taught for eighteen years. She enjoyed her students, and many still comment that she was their favorite teacher.

She was born on March 28, 1941 in Grove City to the late Emma and Sidney Beckwith.
She was married for 54 years to Edward English, Sr., who preceded her in death in 2012.
Jean will be remembered for her kind spirit, loving heart, grace, generosity and delicious dinners and homemade pies. That spirit is why we are so fortunate to have been in her life and to have been loved by her. She gave of herself with no hesitation – always humble and gracious with a twinkle in her eyes. She showed her love in her ready smile, her optimism and her gift of hospitality. So, we are left here, missing her, yet knowing she is in her new home with her Savior.
She was employed as a cook at the former Peterson’s Store, the Bradford Hospital, the Bradford Ecumenical Home and Chapel Ridge.
