Morgon loved animals and enjoyed spending time helping with the cows, as well as fishing and playing football. He was a true mama’s boy who loved his family and had a special place in his heart for his brothers. Although he and his brothers might fuss and fight among themselves, he made it clear that nobody else was allowed to pick on them. He also had a heart for others and was never shy about inviting his friends to church, especially if he knew they didn't have a church family of their own. Whether spending time with his family, helping on the farm, or simply being with his friends, he brought a special kind of love and personality to the lives of those around him.

Morgon is preceded in death by his brother, Virgil Evans; Grandfather, Carl Simpson; Paternal great grandparents, Perry and Frances Simpson; Step-grandfather, James Harris; Maternal great grandparents, Robert Grantham and Betty Criddle; aunts, Casey Wilkerson, Elma Sue Jolly, and Robbie Kennedy (John.)
