Alvie Jo Morgan
February 9, 1930 — June 7, 2018
Alvie Jo Morgan, affectionately known as Mrs. Jo, made her journey to her eternal home on June 7, 2018. She is preceded in death by her husband, E.G. Morgan; her brothers, Leon, Edgbert, Norris, and Nulen Hatton; sisters Margarite Duhon and Frances Phillips. She preceded her youngest brother, Jimmy Hatton, to their eternal home by 16 hours after her passing, joining her siblings. Jo Morgan leaves a legacy with her three children; Montie Morgan, and wife JoLynne, James Morgan, and wife Christina, Jo Beth Perkins, and husband Roy. She was Memaw to Charles Morgan and wife Jessica, Hanna Morgan Dennis and husband Torry, Natalie Morgan George, and husband Tim and Andi Perkins. She was able to enjoy great grand-children Abbie and Joanna Morgan; Will, Aubrey and Caleb Dennis; Mason George.
As the story goes, when E.G. Morgan began his ministry at Hillister Baptist Church he was introduced to Alvie Jo Hatton when he needed a pianist. They married and continued to serve the Lord throughout their entire ministry. Every church Bro. Bill served in, Mrs. Jo could be found on the organ or the piano after teaching the 4 & 5 year old children in Sunday School. Mrs. Jo always had the biggest smile on her face when she had a baby in her arms. She continued her ministry even at Calder Woods where she always said “God put me here to minister.” There she played the piano, always making sure the song was in the key most appropriate for the voice of the person leading the singing. In her final days she was loved and cared for by Sarah Ignacio and Beth May. She left this world to meet Jesus face to face and join her loved ones and we are sure she is playing the piano for God’s Heavenly Chorus.
