One of her many stories recounted life at Fort Riley, KS, during the early 1930's and the huge dust storms rolling in from the Dust Bowl. Childhood summers were spent in Savannah visiting her grandmother, Mrs. James M Dixon at the Dixon's Tybee cottage, which was built in 1896, by her grandfather.

In 1950, she moved to Savannah and took a job as an account executive at Merrill Lynch. She was among the first women to become a licensed stockbroker in Georgia. Two years later, she married G Philip Morgan Jr., a realtor and developer. She volunteered with the American Red Cross, Savannah Council of Girl Scouts, Junior League of Savannah, and the Southeast Chatham Land Use Advisory Committee. She served as President of the Women of Christ Episcopal Church, Chairman of the Christ Church Tour of Homes, Chairman of the Episcopal Youth and Children's Services, and President of the Trustees' Garden Club of Savannah, and was a Garden Club of America Approved Horticulture Judge.
