She was born November 4, 1925 near Sheridan, Indiana, to Doyle and Helena (Moore) Pruitt.\r\nKathleen graduated in 1943 from Westfield High School in Westfield, Indiana. After high school, Kathleen worked seven years at Levi Strauss &amp; Co., Indianapolis, in the auditing department. Going back to school, Kathleen graduated from Indiana Wesleyan University in Marion in 1954. Using her degree, Kathleen taught music at Indiana Wesleyan University from 1954 to 1956.\r\nOn July 17, 1954, Kathleen married Rev. Floyd J. Morris. Kathleen and Floyd moved to Laketon in July of 1966, where she became a member of the Laketon Wesleyan Church and Floyd was the pastor for twelve years. Floyd later passed away on August 17, 2002, after forty-eight years of marriage.\r\nDuring their time in the Laketon area, Kathleen taught elementary music in the Metropolitan School District of Wabash County (Urbana, Roann, Lagro, Southwood, LaFontaine, and Metro-North) for twenty-two years before retiring in 1988. She was also a member of the Indiana Retired Teachers Association.\r\nHer hobbies included playing the piano at church, spending time with family, and going to Florida for thirteen winters. In 2006 Kathleen moved to Goshen, where she spent the next thirteen years. In 2019, she moved back to North Manchester.\r\nThe loving memory of Kathleen Morris will be forever cherished by her daughter, Lucinda Morris, Laketon; granddaughter, Amber (Tanner) Cripe, Laketon; grandson, Derek (Ashlynn) Corbran, Peru; seven great-grandchildren; four nephews; and one niece. Kathleen was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Rev.
