Melba Jean Allbritton Morrow

Melba Jean Allbritton Morrow, 85, Houston, Texas went home to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Tuesday, January 24, 2017. She was born February 20, 1931 in Tullos, Louisiana to Dewey and Thelma Allbritton. Feisty and spirited she paved the way for the four brothers that followed. She loved her brothers, any sport with a ball, sewing, puzzles, and could keep a house plant alive for decades - - trait she did not pass along to her daughter.

She was preceded in death by her parents and husband, W.L. (Bo) Morrow, the love of her life, and her brothers Kenneth Allbritton, Pete Allbritton, and Elvin Allbritton. She leaves behind, her brother, Bob Allbritton, and his wife Carolyn Allbritton of Olla, Louisiana; Her son, Larry Glen Morrow and his wife Dolores Munoz Morrow; her daughter, Carol Morrow Keogh and her husband Michael P. Keogh Jr.; four grandchildren, Shawn Michael Keogh, Ryan Lavan Keogh, Allison Michelle Keogh and Marc Anthony Ray Yanez; four great grandchildren, Bo Kolton, Paisley Grace, Shelby Jo, and Kase Cullen Keogh along with many nieces and nephews that she loved dearly.
