Linda Darlene Morgan, more famously known as “Morgan” to everyone, 54, of Asheville, died Thursday, May 13, 2021 at Mission Hospital.

Born in Asheville, she was the daughter of the late James and Elizabeth (Redman) Morgan.

Linda was one of the first employees of Superior Modular Products , now known as Optical Cable Corporation (OCC) in Swannanoa, working there for 27 years.

She was a member of the Star Lanes Women’s Bowling League with many awards , and she enjoyed playing softball for the Asheville City Recreation League. Softball was one of her greatest joys. She was always on the pitching mound and was a fierce competitor. Linda will be missed terribly by her many friends and family whose lives and hearts she touched. Morgan was a kind, giving person and would share her last coke or dollar with you and warm your heart with her smile.

Linda is survived by her Aunts Bozie Morgan of Candler and Priscilla Morgan of Raleigh; cousins Charles and Radeana Dotson; her former partner, Kim Sluder; and a number of extended family members.

A memorial service will be held at 3:00 PM on Sunday, May 16, 2021 at Groce Funeral Home at Lake Julian with Rev. Kelly Dotson officiating. Burial will be private.

  22. I am going to miss my “little sister” very much. I’m going to miss talking to you and having our annual Christmas lunches and arguing about who was paying. We got to know each other at Superior and you became a very dear friend. We are going to miss that sweet smile. My wife is going to miss her favorite “sister in law”. You were loved and will be missed by many.

  30. At a time when the world needs all the kindness it can get, it hardly seems fair that we should lose Morgan’s kind soul. I don’t remember her ever saying anything unkind about anyone, and she always had a smile. The world is a less joyful place without you, Morgan Morgana Dana.
