WILKES-BARRE — Mrs. Laura J. Morgan, age 95, passed away peacefully Saturday night, Feb. 3, 2018, at the VNA Hospice of Philadelphia.

She was born in Plymouth Township, daughter of the late Albert and Mary Jones. She was a graduate of Meyers High School, Wilkes Barre, Class of 1940, and continued her education at a local Secretarial College.

Mrs. Morgan was a member of the First Welsh Baptist Church in Plymouth Township, where she enjoyed singing and worshiping with her fellow church members.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Raymond Morgan, daughter, Mary M. Morgan, and adopted brother, Albert Jones Jr.

She is survived by her daughter, Laura A. Morgan, of Plymouth Meeting, and her son, Raymond E. Morgan, of Gloucester, Va.; grandchildren Raymond E. Morgan Jr., Matthew Gundrum, David Gundrum and Brittany Morgan; and great-grandchildren Raymond E. Morgan III, Kaelynn and Jason.

She was loved and will be missed by all. A memorial service will be held at the convenience of the family.

I was very saddened to hear of Laura's passing! She was a great person! I had the pleasure of knowing her when I worked in the medical field! We once went together to the Kirby to see Tom Jones in concert back in early 2000! It was one of her greatest joys to be able to attend this concert and to meet Tom Jones personally backstage and speak with him in Welsh! She will be missed! May she Rest In Peace.

We love you always!
