MC Talton

M.C., also known as Mouse, touched all who had the privilege of knowing him. His journey on this earth was one marked by hard work, strength like armor, and unconditional love. His passing has left a void in the hearts of his family, friends and many more. We ask that you remember him not for the way his life ended, but for the way it was lived.

Visitation will be at Morgan Funeral Chapel Thursday, November 6, 2025 from 12 until 2pm. Graveside Service will follow at Oak Hill Cemetery in Attalla at 2:30pm with Sister Teresa Chapman officiating.

M.C. was a graduate from Etowah High School, he made a career out of driving an 18-wheeler for UPS, Osborn, and Austin for many years.

Outside of truck driving, M.C. found joy in playing horseshoes, fishing, roosters, Alabama football, endless cups of coffee and his chewing tobacco, but most of all, spending his days with his grandchildren.

Those who knew M.C. will remember him for his knotted-up eyebrows (the Talton look) and the biggest heart a man could have.

M.C is preceded in death by his father E.D. (Red) Talton; his mother Nina Fitts Talton; his brothers Doyle, Ray, Earl, and Elmus Talton; his sisters Claudia Rowland, Ruby Smith, Mary Patterson, Barbara Heath.
