Born on October 31, 1935, in Greeley, Kansas, Margie was a cherished daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother. Margie was the tenth of ten children born to Louis and Theresa (Schraml) Sommer and grew up on the farm in between Greeley and Lane. She graduated from Greeley High School with the class of 1953. On October 18, 1955, Margie was united in marriage to Eugene Charles Morgan at Greeley. They made their home on a farm near Greeley. They were blessed with two children, Cathleen, and Leon. Margie worked for over 30 years for the Post Office. Her work included working as a letter carrier in Garnett, Richmond and in Greeley.
Margie was an active member of the St. John's Catholic Church and Altar Society. She loved collecting many types of items, especially dolls. Margie and Marion Devore operated Margie's Antiques in Greeley for several years. She loved God's creations, she enjoyed her flowers and bird watching as well as tending to many neighborhood cats, but her dogs Scotty and Louie ran a close second to her beloved grandchildren, Alicia, and Michael. Her unwavering strength, kind spirit, and compassionate nature touched the lives of all who had the honor of knowing her.

Margie leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and devotion to her family and community. She is survived by her son, Leon and wife, Laurie of Greeley; two grandchildren, Alicia of Fort Irwin, California and Michael of Lawrence, Kansas; and many nieces and nephews. She will forever be remembered as a devoted wife to her late husband, a loving mother to her children, and an adored grandmother to her grandchildren.
