Margarette Marie Morgan, 87, of Laurel, MS passed away on July 15, 2022, lovingly surrounded by her three sons.

Margarette was born on February 21st, 1935 to Melvin and Edna Mae Austin in Mize, MS. As a teenager, she moved to Heidelberg, MS to live with her sister's family. It was there that she met the love of her life.

On February 26th, 1953, Margarette married Edward Hendrix Morgan of Heidelberg. They resided and raised their family in Heidelberg where they were dedicated members of the Heidelberg Baptist Church. Margarette was an accomplished beautician and a prominent member of the Eastern Star, PTA and The Heidelberg Garden Club, where she enjoyed raising chrysanthemums.

Margarette and Hendrix retired to Orange Beach, AL, in 1987. They were devoted members of Orange Beach Baptist Church, enjoyed fishing and the beach community and she loved riding her golf cart to visit neighbors. Margarette never knew how to completely retire, so she also enjoyed occasionally working in the restaurant industry.

In 2000, Margarette moved back to Laurel, MS and remained there until she went to be with her Lord and her beloved husband. Margarette was passionate about her children, grandchildren and her beautiful yard. She spent many hours working with her flowers and plants, usually accompanied by her dog and best friend, Little Girl, who was her constant and faithful companion.

Margarette was preceded in death by her husband, Hendrix Morgan. She is survived by her sons: Michael Morgan (Petal, MS), Rodney Morgan and wife, Lisa (Warrior, AL), and Bruce Morgan and wife, Lisa (Ft Worth, TX). She is also survived by her beloved grandchildren Dylan, Drew, Emily, Lauren and Matthew.

Pallbearers will be Tommy Bonner, Bob Barnett, Billy Morgan, Howard Austin, Jo Austin, and Wayne Austin.

A visitation will be held for family and friends on Monday, July 18, 2022 from 6-8 PM at Memory Chapel with services at Memory Chapel on Tuesday, July 19th, 2022 at 2:00 PM. Burial will follow at Calvary Cemetery in Mize, MS.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Calvary Cemetery Fund in care of Howard Austin, SCR 68, Mize, MS 39116.
