| Today's News-Herald, Lake Havasu City, AZ >>> Published on Wednesday, December 20, 2017 <<< Louise Morgan Hanson, 85, passed away Dec. 17, 2017 in Las Vegas, Neveda after a fall in her home in Lake Havasu City from which she never recovered. Louise was born to Richard and Stella Morgan on Sept. 17, 1932 in Willow Springs, Missouri. Her parents moved to southern Idaho in 1935, where they continued to farm. Louise always said she did not want an ordinary life. She wanted adventure in it and this desire came to pass. She loved to travel and went many places during her married years. Many trips were made to Alaska via the Alaska Highway, Hawaii, and sailing to Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. She graduated from high school in Filer, Idaho and immediately moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. She attended business school and supported herself by being a nanny to three little girls. Her adventures continued. She joined her husband during his technical training in California. Louise worked as a secretary and lab technician, earned a Bachelor of Science degree, worked as a volunteer tour guide for children and lived aboard a sailboat, cruising in Mexican waters for several years. After an auto accident in 2000, she and her husband moved to Lake Havasu City, where they remained for the last 17 years. Louise was a very talented seamstress. She always maintained if it could be done on a sewing machine, she could do it. Her projects were wide-ranging, from making and repairing sails to making her daughter's wedding dress. Louise is survived by her husband of 65 years, Allen Hanson, daughter Diane Hanson Lulich, son-in-law Ted Lulich, three grandchildren: Kent, Aaron and Jessa, and twin brothers Richard William Morgan Jr. and Jessie Frank Morgan. A memorial service is at a later date. |
