Ronald Morgan

Ronald Morgan June 12, 1943 – April 16, 2026 “Well done, good and faithful servant…enter into the joy of your Lord.” — Matthew 25:23 Ronald Morgan, age 82, peacefully transitioned on April 16, 2026, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and unwavering devotion to family. Born on June 12, 1943, in Chicago, Illinois, Ronald was the son of the late Arthur Morgan and Evelyn Morgan (Allen). He spent his early years in Chicago, where he built the foundation of the man he would become… and where he met and married his high school sweetheart, Zelda Morgan (McDougle). Shortly after high school, Ronald proudly enlisted in the United States Air Force. His service took him and his beloved wife across the country and abroad, including time in Greenland, Texas, Massachusetts, and beyond. These years were marked not only by service to his country but by the strengthening of the bond he shared with Zelda as they built their life together. After retiring from military service, Ronald and Zelda settled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where they raised their family and continued creating a home filled with love, laughter, and community. Ronald was a man whose life was defined not just by what he did, but by how he made people feel… welcomed, valued, and at home. As a draftsman by trade, he brought precision and creativity into his work… qualities that reflected his thoughtful and steady nature. Ronald’s faith was also a cornerstone of his life. He was a devoted member of the church, where he faithfully served as a deacon. His love for ministry was matched by his love for music. He also expressed his joy and personality through music as a DJ, bringing energy and connection to those around him, but Ronald’s true gift was his ability to bring people together. Alongside his beloved wife, Zelda, he created a home that became the heartbeat of family and friendship. They were known for hosting gatherings - holidays, celebrations, and special occasions… where laughter was abundant, meals were shared, and everyone felt like family. Together, they built not just a life, but a lasting community. Ronald had a deep love for life’s simple and meaningful pleasures. Whether he was fishing in peaceful waters, enjoying time at the bowling alley, or hitting the road in one of his coveted luxury vans, he found joy in the journey. He especially loved to drive - taking pride in the experience, the freedom, and the moments in between destinations. Following the passing of his wife, Ronald relocated to Georgia to be closer to his daughters and grandchildren, where he continued to be surrounded by the love of family. Ronald was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Zelda Morgan (McDougle), and his siblings Clifford Morgan, Phillip Morgan, Beatrice Morgan, and Evelyn Morgan. He leaves to cherish his memory his loving daughters, Cassandra A. Morgan and Natalie D. Jones (Morgan); his son-in-law, George A. Jones; his cherished grandchildren, Kailyn C. Jones and Cameron A. Jones; his brother, Arthur Morgan, and sister-in-law, Clovious Morgan; as well as a host of nieces and nephews. His family was his greatest pride, and his love for them will continue to guide and surround them. A public viewing will be held on Thursday, April 30, 2026, from 12:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Gregory B.
