MORGAN, Effie Kennedy The Pulaski Citizen 3 Jan 1940
After lingering in the shadow s for about a year, Mrs. G. A. Morgan passed away at the Pulaski Hospital , Friday night, peacefully and gently, as a babe going to sleep. There was no struggle or gasping. The tired heart simply ceased its feeble breathing ceased and the spirit in the frail body to join the hosts of those who dwell with the immortals.
Mrs. Morgan was before marriage Miss Effie Kennedy of Cornersville, a sister of the late Rev. M. S. Kennedy, so long the beloved past of the Pulaski Presbyterian Church. As a young woman she met, and later married the Rev. G. A. Morgan, a young Methodist preacher, who was at the time stationed near her father's home.
She made an ideal preacher's wife. Always accepted with a murmur or complaint whatever assignment came to her husband. And entered actively into the work with him. She was an active worker, and a leader in the Missionary Society, as her husband was with the congregation.
One son was born to them, George A. Morgan, Jr. And it was the ambition of each of his parents to give him even better opportunities than they enjoyed, although each had enjoyed the benefits of a good education.
When Dr. Morgan was President of Martin College, Mrs. Morgan was his chief assistant. Even when he had occasion to be away from the College for a few days, the work went on smoothly under her guidance.
Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Methodist Church, Rev. S. R. Bratcher, pastor in charge, assisted by Rev. Cullen T. Carter, District Superintendent, officating. In keeping with Mrs. Morgan's wishes, the service was short and simple.
A wealth of beautiful florals gave evidence of the high esteem in which the good woman was held.
Burial was on the family lot at Cornersville. This too was Mrs. Morgan's wish.
The large auditorium was filled to capacity, not only local friends of the family, but also relatives and friends from other communities. And a number of preacher friends of both Mr. and Mrs. Morgan who came to pay a final tribute of love and respect.
