Peggy J. Morris, 84, a lifelong resident of Gooding and Bliss, passed peacefully away on February 29, 2020 at Bridgeview Estates in Twin falls, Idaho, surrounded by her daughters.
Peggy was born on the homestead in Bliss, Idaho January 12, 1936 to Glenn and Olah Graves. She was number 4 of 5 children and attended Bliss School for all 12 years graduating as salutatorian of her senior class. She loved playing sports, especially basketball, in her high school years. Her love of sports carried on through out the rest of her life.
One evening at a dance in Richfield, ID she met Gene Morris, the man that would capture her heart.
Besides her daughters, Peggy adored her 3 grandkids. She hardly missed anything they were involved in from Chris’s baseball, Jeff’s football and work at Disney World or whatever mountain Stephanie was on searching for snowshoe hares. Peggy would find a way to get to wherever her grandkids were and not much got in her way. They brought total joy in her life and the joy continued with the birth of 3 great grandkids!
Peggy moved to Bridgeview in 2016. She enjoyed her apartment and having new friends with whom to share meals and conversation but her true passion at Bridgeview was playing Bingo.
Peggy is survived by: her daughters – Shery Harmon and Deb Wilson; her grandchildren – Chris Harmon, Stephanie Harmon (Bill Haskins), Jeff Wilson (Mallory Brooks); as well as her 3 great grandchildren – Harlee Haskins, Annie Haskins and Jayden Wilson; plus many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband – Gene; brothers – Alvin Graves and Gene Graves; sisters – Erma Colter and Shirley France; 2 nephews and 1 niece.
The family would like to thank the staff at Bridgeview Estates for the wonderful love and care that they provided to their mom. She truly thought of Bridgeview as her home.
