Shawntee Morris Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Bennie Smith Funeral Home - Milford on Mar. 20, 2026.
It is with broken hearts and our deepest sorrows that we announce the death of our beloved daughter, sister, aunt, and friend, Shawntee S. Morris (aged 47).

Born April 22, 1978; she brought light into every room and heart.

Shawntee was a joyful sister, loving friend, and compassionate caregiver. She made an immediate impact on everyone who met her, and on many who never would.

Her work with the geriatric community was her calling, and she loved every moment.

Shawntee will be deeply missed by her mother, Cleopatra; her father, Greg; her brother, Omar; her little sister, Tanika; and many others. With no children of her own, her nephews, Jose and Legend, were very special to her.

A service to celebrate her life will be held at

Bennie Smith Funeral Home on February 28, 2026
