Vester "Billy" Dolive Morgan, 82, passed away on Tuesday, January 19, 2021 in Mobile, Alabama. Bill was born to Sylvester and Bessie Cole Morgan on May 2, 1938 in Old Texas, Alabama. He was an extremely hardworking man – his sole purpose to provide and build a legacy for his children and grandchildren. Bill worked for Scott Paper Company as an Instrument Electrician before retiring after 25 years of service. He served with the United States Army as well. Bill loved and adored his wife, rarely letting her out of his sight. He enjoyed looking for new property to own, trudging through the woods and walking the lay of the land in prospect of the next best deal. Bill loved his Lord, and His Word, and would share the Gospel with anyone who would listen. He was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather, and will be loved and missed.
Bill was preceded in death by his son, Eric E. Morgan; parents, Sylvester and Bessie Morgan; and brother, Dothan E. Morgan.
He is survived by his loving wife of 54 years, Veronica Walker Morgan; son, Stephen V. Morgan; daughter, Diana Morgan Deupree; four grandchildren, Christopher Morgan, Kiersten Morgan, Isabella Morgan, and Joshua M. Deupree; as well as a host of other cherished family and friends.
Visitation for Bill will be held on Saturday, January 23, 2021 from 9 a.m. until 10 a.m. at Pine Crest Funeral Home on Dauphin Island Parkway in Mobile, with a chapel service immediately following. Interment will be in Pine Crest Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Home of Grace for Women.
