TENNESSEE—Mary Jo (Haldorson) Morgan, 70, of Chapmansboro, TN, and formerly of Wilmington passed away at her residence on Jan. 25, 2026.
Born on July 21, 1955, in Joliet, Mary Jo was a daughter of John and Phyllis (Hannum) Haldorson. She was the former dietary aide at Aperion Care Center in Wilmington and retired in 2025.

Mary Jo is survived by her loving husband, Dave Morgan; aunts and uncle: Fran Hannum, of Arizona; Ralph (Lela) Haldorson, of Wilmington and Margaret Haldorson, of Elgin, IL, and numerous cousins.
