    J. E. 'Aim" Morhardt died at age 81 in Bishop.
    J. Emil "Aim" Morhardt died in Bishop Friday after an extraordinary career as a composer, teacher, prospector, poet and artist.
    Morhardt was born March 17, 1906, in Pasadena; he spent the past 41 years in Bishop. Some adults will remember him as a teacher of art, music and skiing at Bishop schools, where he spent 27 years in classrooms.
    In January 50 paintings by Morhardt were shown at Stanford University. He produced more than 2,000 paintings, and, more to his liking, he said this past January, countless thousands of poems and hundreds of songs, many of which
have been published.
    He organized and directed symphonies, orchestras, string quartettes - and composed for these groups - as well as bands and choruses. Morhardt occasionally put musical scores and lyrics in his paintings, which were usually
watercolors.
    "He was a man who can't be replaced, a man of all seasons and all talents," said Jane Fisher, who described Morhardt as a dear friend.
    Morhardt gave up fame in several areas to live in Bishop and enjoy the area's lifestyle, she added.
    "He liked sharing his artistic talent and developing new talent in others," Fisher said. "This is a tremendous loss to the world of fine arts."
    Bishop's lifestyle attracted Morhardt as a prospector. By the late 1960s, he had been a miner for about 40 years and had some profitable tungsten mines and other claims. At that time, nearly 20 years ago, he and his partner
would make prospecting trips Morhardt called "blue-sky mining." This meant taking his dogs, some steaks and a half-gallon of wine to the pinon pine country and poking around.
    "We don't seem to find much ore this way," Morhardt said then. "But at this stage of the game it doesn't bother me very much."
    "The open country calls one endlessly, and I expect to be out in it as long as I can walk," he added.
    His interest in Inyo County led to his election in the late 1960s as president of the Death Valley '49ers.
    Morhardt was a member of the American Institute of Fine Arts, a Fellow of the International Institute of Arts and Letters, and has paintings and books in collections across the United States.
    A private burial service was arranged.
