Murrie S. Morgan, 93, of Beaumont, died Saturday, April 23, 2016, at Christus Hospital St. Elizabeth, Beaumont. She was born on December 7, 1922, in Nederland, to Agnes Bourg Stehle and Louis Stehle, and had been a long time resident of the area. Murrie retired as a vice president from First City National Bank, Beaumont.
She was an active member of St. Pius X Catholic Church, Beaumont. Murrie served as Eucharistic Minister, money counter, active member of the Ladies Organization and faithful participant in B.A.M. (Our fun loving seniors group.) It is impossible to list everything Murrie did for St. Pius, but let’s just say in response to God’s call “Whom shall I send?” Murrie was quick to respond “Here I am Lord. I am ready to do Your Will.”
Survivors include her brother-in-law, James Stehle and his wife, Sue, of Beaumont; two nieces; two nephews; and a multitude of great and great-great nieces and nephews.
Murrie is preceded in death by her parents, and her loving husband of fifty-five years, T. G. Morgan.
