The Morton Family

Dean and Lisa Morton live in McKinney with their daughter Delaney, and their lab, Casey.  The Morton’s have been in North Texas for 10 years, moving here from the Houston area.  They are thrilled to be in North Texas, not missing the humidity of Houston one bit, and enjoying real seasons.

Dean is a Vice President with Bank of America, working with telecommunication providers throughout the world, keeping the Bank’s worldwide telephone network up and running.  In his spare time Dean is a full on outdoorsman, enjoying competitive shooting, saltwater fishing & fly fishing, camping, hiking, and skiing.

Lisa is a graduate of the University of Houston with a degree in Business. She worked for 11 years with Houston Ballet, administering their professional dancer development academy.  After meeting and marrying Dean, she spent the next 14 years as a dedicated Mommy.  Today Lisa has reentered the world of education, this time as a member of the ESL team within Frisco ISD.  She is supporting and guiding non-English speaking middle school students in their adjustment to Texas schools. Lisa has been a Girl Scout Troop Leader and run a mother-daughter book club.  And as an animal lover, Lisa also volunteers at the McKinney SPCA.

Delaney is in her Junior year at Heritage High School in Frisco ISD and a student in FISD’s Independent Study and Mentorship Program (ISM), studying Library Science.  She is looking forward to graduation in 2017, and beginning her college education.

Casey is a loyal lab, spending his days sitting under Dean’s desk, offering his “Man’s Best Friend” support whenever required.
