Her faith with the Lord ran deep, and she attended Holy Trinity by the Lake Episcopal Church in Heath, Texas. Mary was a kind soul who valued her relationships with friends and former co-workers. She kept in touch with friends from childhood, college, and her career at Hewlett Packard and Phillips Technologies.

She was preceded in death by her husband: Jerry Morgan; parents: Harry Coley Sr. and Sarah Coley; sister: Geri Coley Smith; and brothers: James M. Coley and Harry M. Coley.

Mary is survived by her sisters-in-law: Ann Stanley Coley, Melana Lanford Coley, and Lynn Morgan.
