Tom “Teedmo”, and his brother James “Jim” Morgan both retired from the U. S. Navy and served their country well. He retired from Norfolk Southern and worked for First Tennessee Bank. His love, humor and spirited soul will be missed by family, friends and those that crossed his path. Tom was a member of Cross of Calvary Church. Heaven – have plenty of black coffee!

There are 10 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren; brother, James “Jim” Morgan; and many nieces and nephews.
