Thomas "Tom" L. Morgan, 79, of Perrysburg Township, passed away October 5, 2017 surrounded by his loving family. Tom was born December 18, 1937 in Toledo. He was a proud graduate of Macomber Vocational School in 1956. He married the love of his life, Nora "Jeanne" CHATFIELD, on January 25, 1958 at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church. Tom was a proud veteran of the United States Navy. He served on USS Basilone, a destroyer escort. Tom began his career at Perrysburg Collision. He earned his associates degree from Owens and bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from the University of Toledo. He worked at Young Ottawa and later at Teledyne where he worked for 27 years, retiring in 2007.

Tom was a charter member of Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church, a member of the Freemasons, and he enjoyed viewing PBS. He participated in classic car shows, with Ford being his car of choice. He spent many hours restoring his 1963 Falcon. Tom was an extremely avid reader and loved to fill his time with books. He also enjoyed hobbies such as photography, playing the guitar, and listening to jazz and old country western music. He especially enjoyed designing and creating his own stain glass art.

Tom will be missed dearly by his wife of nearly 60 years Nora "Jeanne" Morgan; daughter Juli (John) Steinmetz of Perrysburg, Ohio; granddaughter Sara (Doug) Balsmeyer and their children Ezekiel, Micah, and Tabitha, of Walbridge, Ohio; granddaughter Alexis Morgan of Denver, Colorado; grandson Jonathon Morgan of Monroe, Michigan; brother Larry (Carla) Razny of Arizona; brother David (Pam) Razny of South Carolina; sister Vicki (Peter) Brown of California. Thomas is preceded in death by his parents, sister Mary, and his son Todd O. Morgan.

Tom, being so proud of his Norwegian heritage, left one joke for everyone. Why does the Norwegian Navy have barcodes on the sides of their ships? So when they come to port they can… Scandinavian.
