William Clanie Morgan, 94, passed away Monday, June 20, 2022, at his home, surrounded by his family.
A celebration of his life and precious memories will be 2:00 PM, Friday, June 24, 2022 at Robbins First Wesleyan Church, where he was a member. Reverend Cameron Dockery and Reverend Wilson Harris will be officiating. Burial will follow in the Pine Rest Cemetery.
Clanie was a native of Randolph County. He was a military veteran of the United States Army.

He enjoyed spending time with family and friends, chasing his grandchildren around the house, driving his self-restored 1964 Comet convertible, mowing and working on his backhoe, traveling the country to places such as Alaska, Nova Scotia and other states out west, watching Nascar and attending auctions. Clanie was truly a blessed man with a loving wife and family and he blessed others with his love, knowledge and generosity.

Enter now into the joy of your lord.’” Matthew 25:23.
