Mary Lou Morgan was born on August 8, 1927 to Ben and Sarah Ellis in Treece, KS. She was preceded in death by her older sister LaVetta Endsley. Her younger sister Martha Gailey currently lives in Miami, where the girls grew up, and her parents lived out their lives. Mary Lou married Elton Wayne Morgan in 1947. Wayne passed away in 2007, after 60 years of marriage. In the years following marriage, they continued pursuing education, even while growing their family of 3 children: Carole Schneider, of Indianapolis, IN, Sue Zangri, of Bethany, and Roger Morgan, of Blanchard. Mary Lou achieved her Master’s degree in the mid- sixties, having already begun her career as a teacher. She taught elementary school until her retirement in the eighties. After retirement, she enjoyed collecting dolls, hoping with Wayne to open a doll shop. She also enjoyed reading, until her eyesight failed. Most of all she enjoyed keeping up with her growing family, numbering at the time of her death 19 grandchildren, and 29 great-grandchildren. She would be proud to introduce to you: Carole’s children, Steven, Jeremy and Megan Schneider, along with 3 great-grandchildren.
