Donna Gaye Morgan was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend who passed away peacefully on May 13, 2026, in Mesa, Arizona, surrounded by her loving family. Born on December 9, 1936 in Coalville, Utah and raised in Arizona, Donna lived a life filled with love, faith, and dedication to her family and community, even spending years living in Southern Oregon.
Donna was preceeded in death by her cherished parents, Louis and Ruth Moore, and her devoted husband, James Daniel Morgan. She leaves behind a legacy of kindness and warmth, survived by her two brothers, Ron Moore and Jay Moore; her children, Dennis White (Neva White), Bob White (Hazel White), Colette Lyons (Louis Lyons), and Lori Cozad (John Cozad). Her nurturing spirit lives on in her 12 grandchildren, numerous great-grandchildren, several great-great-grandchildren, and the many honorary grandchildren who were blessed to be embraced by her caring heart.
A faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Donna found great joy in her spiritual journey, frequently visiting the temple and participating in church activities until her health no longer permitted. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, guiding her through life's challenges with grace and dignity.
Donna's warmth, wisdom, and unwavering love will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her life was a testament to the power of love and the importance of family, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those she touched.
A Funeral Service celebrating Donna's life will be held at the LDS church in Camp Verde (360 S 5th St, Camp Verde, AZ 86322), on June 6, 2026 with a 10 am viewing and 11 am service, where family and friends will gather to honor her memory and cherish the countless moments she shared with them. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you feed your local missionaries, reflecting Donna's generous spirit and commitment to helping others.
