Morgan was born March 5, 1993 in Charleston, SC to Alberta Pierson and Shonni Abernathy. She was a loving daughter who took care of her younger sister while her parents worked. She was a beautiful girl and an inspiration to everyone and loved by her many friends and family.
Morgan, 19, had dropped out of Cane Bay High School but aimed to return and complete her final year. After graduation, she envisioned college and a career in X-ray technology or veterinary medicine.
Marriage also was in her plans. She recently became engaged to her boyfriend of six years, Michael Still. He worshipped the ground she walked on.
Morgan was a country girl who took after her grandmother, the family's tougher-than-nails former matriarch. She swam in muddy rivers, caught chubby catfish longer than her legs and took in wild critters as pets: snakes, rats, hermit crabs, snails. She preferred the ugliest she could find.
She was part hippie, part punk. She wore clothes adorned with peace symbols or skulls and crossbones. She wore dark eyeliner and bleach-blond hair. And her most recent pet was a Chihuahua mix, an ankle-biter she named "Ozzy" after the heavy-metal rocker.
She is survived by her mother : Alberta Pierson and her father , Shonni Abernathy, a sister : Maegan Abernathy and her fiancé Michael Still all of Goose Creek, SC , maternal grandfather Allen Pierson of Goose Creek, SC and her uncle's ; John Radcliff (Kelly) of Zion, SC and Allen Pierson (June) of Goose Creek, SC. She was predeceased by her grandmother June Pierson and Barbara and Harlan L. Abernathy.
