June 16, 1928 - September 3, 2022
Our beloved Mother, Mildred Lucille Morgan, of North Little Rock, passed over peacefully on September 3, 2022, 2022 at the age of 94.
Mildred was born on June 16, 1928 in Marshall County in Alabama to the late Wallace and Edna Gilliland. Mildred married Loise C. Morgan in 1946. They were happily married for over 65 years and were blessed with four children. Her husband, Loise, preceded her in death in 2012.
She was also preceded in death by her sister, Debbie Calhoun and her brother, Kenneth Gilliland.
She leaves behind her son and three daughters: Teresa Smith (Kirby) of College Station, TX; Dinah Kennedy (John) of North Little Rock, AR; Wyman Morgan (Lois) of Springdale, AR and Melinda Wesneski (Robert) of Pisgah Forest, NC. She also leaves her siblings, Myra Wilson of Crossville, Alabama and Charles Gilliland of Huntsville, Alabama.
Mildred was blessed to have 9 grandchildren who loved her dearly: Lori Nichols of Sherwood, AR; Elizabeth Hallum (Patrick) of North Little Rock, AR; Jeremy Smith (Natalie) of Houston, TX; Kevin Smith (Sheryl) of Sugar Land, TX; Christy Donnelly of Victoria, TX; Lauren Murry (Tyler) of Elm Springs, AR; Kyle Wesneski (Rachel) of Atlanta, GA; Ryan Wesneski of Eugene, OR and Joshua Wesneski of Alexandria, VA.
She also leaves behind 13 great grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren.
Our mother has left us with wonderful memories of her skills of cooking and sewing. She was a generous woman who always shared her food, time and love with both family and all those around her. She was always a faithful member of her local church wherever she lived throughout her life and was loved by the many children she taught in Sunday School. Mildred was currently a member of Park Hill Baptist Church.
The family would like to thank the staffs at Elmcroft Assisted Living and Robinson Nursing Home for their wonderful care of Mildred.
Visitation will be Thursday, September 8, at 10:00 a.m. and funeral services at 11:00 a.m. at Roller-Owens Funeral Home, 5509 JFK Blvd, North Little Rock. Private burial will be held at the Arkansas State Veteran's Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations be made to Samaritan's Purse (samaritanspurse.org) or to the Arkansas Baptist Children's Homes and Family Ministries (arkansasfamilies.org).
