Mrs. Morgan was an amazing homemaker and filled her home with love for anyone who visited. She and her husband opened and operated a flower shop in Francesville. She worked in the florist industry for 24 years. She leveraged every talent she had and poured her heart into cooking, quilting, flower arranging and spending time with her family and friends.
