    Notes:

    Helen Ruth Morgan

    Helen Ruth Morgan was born to Winnie Ora Davidson Morgan (USPS Post Master in Bronson, TX) and Jesse Monroe Morgan (owner of the only Texaco gas station in Bronson) on August 6 1926 in Bronson, Texas and passed away in West Point, Texas on August 19. 2015. She was their only child.

    Ms. Morgan attended Bronson High School, there, she met Milton Carroll Johnson and in 1946 they married. Helen was married two other times but passed away a happy single woman. She spent her last 16 years in companionship with her dearest friend and roommate, Mary Jo Brown. They had become known around West Point as "Thelma and Louise." They were always ready to go dancing or to watch their favorite football teams (Cowboys and Longhorns). Laughter was their trademark.

    Ms. Morgan received her Registered Nurse (RN) degree in the Army Corp during the final days of World War II. She was on the front lines during the tragic 1947 Texas City explosions and fires that devasted their community.

    Her children are Carroll Monroe Johnson (deceased), with the surviving children being Dwayne (Butch) Edward Johnson of San Antonio, Tx, Ronald (Pete) Anthony Johnson of West Point, TX, and her only daughter Sydna Johnson of West Point, TX, along with 8 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and 3 great-great grandchildren.

    May she rest in peace with a smile on her lips, laughter in her heart, and dances in her step.
