Dolores Canales also spent time incarcerated in the SHU – California's nickname for isolation units. So, it's not lost on them that they will never be alone again.Morris and Canalas, both 62, were married on July 16 at the Los Caballeros Club in Fountain Valley in Orange County, with more than 100 friends, relatives and prison rights activists cheering as they took their vows. "You know how they talk about fine wines aging?" Morris said Tuesday in an interview. "This is what this is.
Dolores and I. Of course, you know, when we first got together, I had been in prison for 40 years, and I didn't know how to live in a community, and I didn't know how to live with another person.
But Dolores helped me learn and experience the finer things in the world." He added that he loves just holding hands with his new bride. "And we laugh and we giggle and we see the world through each other's eyes," Morris said.
