We sadly announce the passing of the most wonderful mother, grandmother, wife, and friend, Odessa Pecunia Morgan. She passed away peacefully on Wednesday March 11, 2020. Odessa lived a purposeful and endearing life for 99 years, and still was reminiscing and telling stories about her family and friends to the end of her life. Odessa was born October 15, 1920 in New Orleans, Louisiana. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 49 years, Alton John Morgan, her parents Louis and Hattie Pecunia, her son Leonard Morgan, her sister Muriel Howe, and granddaughter Lane Michelle Morgan.

She is also survived by her great grandchildren Charley Arceneaux, Hunter Morgan, and Amelie Morgan. Odessa was a graduate of Annunciation High School. She was a devote Catholic raising her children in the faith. Odessa's last years were spent at Heritage Manor of Slidell. At Heritage Manor, she was on the resident's council and was responsible for starting a nondenominational chapel for the residents. Her family wishes to thank and much appreciates the loving care and attention provided by Heritage Manor of Slidell and Notre Dame Hospice.

I would like to extend my deepest sympathy to the Morgan Family. May God and Jesus comfort you and look over your mother for eternity.

To the Morgan family, my condolences on the loss of your mother, such a beautiful lady inside and out. My Grandmother, Hattie Simpson, was her Great aunt and she always told the story of how my Father, Bill "Whitey" Simpson took her to her first prom cause the family trusted him! So sorry I did not get to visit her in Slidell.

I loved hearing all of the Odessa stories. I remember her hanging out at school with Ms. Shirley helping Janell get the classroom ready. She was a loving mom and a good friend to all. And she was always quite a lady!
