Arlene Morgan

A luncheon celebration of life will be held for 21-year 
Fallon resident Arlene Morgan, 82, on Sunday, Feb. 2, at 
the Multi-purpose Building at 225 Sheckler Rd. in Nevada 
at 11 a.m.

Born to Everett and Nellie Bailey in Winterset, Iowa on 
Nov. 23, 1920, Mrs. Morgan died on Jan. 4, 2003.

At the age of 20, she left Winterset and moved to Los 
Angeles, where she spent the next 16 years. She then moved 
to the Owens Valley, where she and her sister managed the 
Ranch House in Olancha. She met and married Bruce Morgan in 
1958 and raised their daughters in Lone Pine. She was very 
active in the 4-H program.

In 1982, she moved to Fallon, where she spent the rest of 
her years.

Arlene was a lively, spirited gal with a generous heart. 
She was a devoted mother and grandmother. She enjoyed the 
simple pleasures in life, like spring flowers in bloom, 
craft fairs, country music, cats, crocheting, crossword 
puzzles, and playing video poker.

She lived a long, full, sometimes trying life and she did 
it with zest. In fact, she often ate dessert for breakfast!

Arlene was preceded in death by her husband, parents, 
brother, Henry Bailey; sister, Evelyn Howard; stepdaughters, 
Barbara Jefferson and Enid Hanson; and stepson, Charles 
Morgan.

She is survived by daughter, Denise Kirby of Truckee; 
daughter, Amber Morgan of Fallon; granddaughter, Hope 
Paschal of Fallon; sister, Wilma Olson of Loomis, Calif.; 
brother, Lloyd Bailey of New Orleans; stepson, Richard 
Morgan of Auburn, Calif.; stepdaughter, Roberta Peters of 
Minden; numerous nieces, nephews, grandchildren and 
great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made 
in Arlene's name to Churchill Animal Protection Society at 
2390 S. Crook Rd., Fallon, NV, 89406.
