Joseph Nelson Morgan III, 46, of Midland, passed away Thursday, May 1, 2025 at his home. He was born February 27, 1979 in Freeport, Texas, son to Melody (Williamson) Wellman and the late Joseph Nelson Morgan Jr. At a young age, Joe moved to Midland where he grew up and spent the rest of his life. He was a simple man who loved the joys of being outdoors, whether hunting, fishing, or just enjoying the breeze. Family was very important to Joe and he cherished the time he was able to spend with them.
Left to cherish his memory are his mom and step-dad; three children; nine grandchildren; three siblings; maternal grandpa; and his significant other. In addition to his dad, Joe was preceded in death by his daughter Kayla Runie; and his other grandparents.
In accordance with Joe's wishes, cremation has taken place. A memorial service to celebrate his life will take place at 1 p.m. Friday, June 13, 2025 at Floyd Church of God, 1015 West Chippewa River Road. His family asks that you dress casually or wear camo in honor of Joe. Those planning an expression of sympathy are asked to consider any cancer treatment fund of the donor's choosing or plant a tree in Joe's memory.
All of us at Ware Smith Woolever are honored the Morgan family has entrusted us with the care of their loved one.
