Johnny Hill Morgan, 81, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, August 4, 2021 at Beacon Place after a lengthy illness, into the loving arms of Jesus. Johnny was a life-long resident of Guilford County, and a Greensboro High School graduate (currently Grimsley HS). Johnny's spiritual birthday was August 2, 1957 at age 17. He served his Lord, church and family faithfully. A funeral service will be held at 3:00 PM, August 14 at Bales Wesleyan Church in Jamestown.
Johnny's career started with Thompson and Arthur. He was a welder and pipe fitter, belonging to the Welders and Pipe Fitters Union, 421; and was a member of the United Association for 50 years. Johnny worked the East Coast from New York to Florida. He went back to school for his degree in heating and air conditioning. Johnny retired from K-Mart Distribution in 2001.
Johnny was an avid Bible reader, loved his church, and was a prayer warrior for others. He has been a Sunday School Teacher, Youth Group Advisor, served on the church board in all positions except secretary, and was a member and officer of the Wesleyan Men. Johnny attended Bales Wesleyan Church faithfully until his health declined.
Johnny loved the outdoors and working in his yard, caring for his flowers and bird feeders. He also enjoyed spending time with his family and friends. He was a member of the impromptu "Proximity Group"- a dinner group from his school.
Johnny was preceded in death by his father, William Earl Morgan; mother, Argie Mae Hill Morgan; in-laws Melvin and Carol Fields; and brother-in-law, Tom Fields. Johnny is survived by his loving wife of 59 ½ years, Carol Ann Fields Morgan, daughter Angela Brown (Tony) of Pleasant Garden, son Michael Morgan of Greensboro; his grandchildren Morgan Brown Bishop (Daniel) of Greensboro and Ryan Brown (fiancé April Cates) of Snow Camp; step-grandchildren Chadyn Carter of Greensboro and Trefyn Carter (Holly and children) of Archdale; and his pride and joy, his most precious great-grandchildren Kaylie Brown, Sawyer Bishop, and Greyson Bishop.
The family will receive friends following the service at Bales Wesleyan Church.
