the amazing age of 91.
He was born in Olney, Illinois on June 19, 1932.
He is survived by his loving wife of 38 years, Mary Lou Morgan and faithful Chiweenie dog
Molly. He is also survived by his daughters, Nancy Morgan Stewart (sp. Dennis) of New Jersey
and Jennifer Morgan Morin of Michigan, step-children, Jami Wheeler (sp. Herb) and Tina
Syester of Indiana. Also surviving are grandchildren, Morgan Morin-Pickett (sp. Kevin) of
Michigan, KatieRyn Stewart of New Jersey and Peter Morin of Michigan, step-grandchildren,
Sasha Wagner (sp. Luke), Dylan Price, Olivia Price (partner, Eric Bridgewater) of Indiana, step-
great grandchildren, Dallas Wagner and Lincoln Wagner of Indiana, and niece Cathy Toliver
Paul (sp. Ted) of New Hampshire. Additional surviving are numerous cousins and countless
friends.
Eddie was preceded in death by his parents, Rolla Morgan and Mary Cecil Stump Morgan, first
wife Dorothy "Bunny" (Flowers) Morgan, sister Phyllis Toliver (Wid), stepson Don Syester, and
son-in-law Peter Morin.
Eddie was born and raised in Olney, Illinois. Eddie lived a life of honesty, curiosity and, most of
all, humor. He was always ready with a huge grin, a twinkle in his eye and a good joke.
He was very proud of his days working on a barge on the Ohio River, his time in the Army
during Korea, and returning to Olney to make a living building beautiful homes.
He was born into a family with a love of motorcycles and spent nearly his entire life riding them,
Harley Davidsons when he was young, then Honda TL trials dirt bikes with his family. He then
transitioned to Honda Gold Wings, and proceeded to tour all over the United States, even into
Canada around Lake Superior. He became one of the earliest members of the Gold Wing Road
Riders Association, a charter member of Indiana Chapter D, and was the inaugural recipient of
the "Good as Gold" award, created in his honor.
When it was time to give up the bike, they continued traveling with a camper, visiting nearly
every state and National Park. Then, when finally giving up the camper, they became "snow
birds" spending the winters in Florida.
Services for Eddie will be on Thursday, January 25, 2024. Visitation will be from 4:00 p.m. - 6:00
p.m., followed by the funeral service at Greiner's Funeral Home in Terre Haute, Indiana. Burial
will be in Olney, Illinois at a later date.
