Janice,
Know that my prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. Your mother was one of the sweetest people I've ever known. She had a long wonderful life and will be waiting for you with Our Heavenly Father.
Love you, Susie

Mrs. Morgan was a good neighbor. I enjoyed stopping in to visit in the evenings when the dog and I were coming home from our walk in the spring and summer. Several years ago when there was a death in the neighborhood she would order flowers and all the neighbors would drop off our share of the cost. She could be seen out working in her flowers everyday in the warm weather. We will miss her.

Mrs. Morgan was a dear sweet family loving Christian woman who has gone home. Her large adoring family is a testament to the life she lived and is the legacy she left behind.

Janice and family, I was so sad to hear of your mom passing. We all know she is in a much better place, and I'm sure she was met at the gate by many family members and friends to welcome her home. Take care, and know we have all of you in our prayers. Love,

Morgan family, my thoughts and prayers have been with you this week. Your Mother/Grandmother played a major part in my life through the First Baptist Church and in her home with Janice. I have many memories of playing on the hill and being kitchen with Mrs. Morgan. What a precious person she was and I know the Morgan family has been filled with memories these last few days. Sorry I couldn't be there with you but I sure was in spirit. Love to you all!

Janice and Family,
Mamma Howard now has a wonderful "Gem" joining the Victory Group who have gone to be with the Lord.
I have so many fond memories of your Mom and our growing up years--many nights we were welcomed into her home just as if we were one of hers. And, there was always some thing wonderful in that ref. or a cookie jar.
Years later, I enjoyed seeing her at First Baptist as she shared news about her wonderful family.
And that you guys have been--taking wonderful care of her--how blessed she was to have such a wondefully long life and a beautiful family.
Memories will flood your soul and be a part of the healing process as you miss her!
Just know that we are thinking of you.
