June 13, 1939 – November 27, 2022
Nancy Sue Morris, 83, Noblesville, passed away surrounded by family on Sunday morning, November 27, 2022, at Copper Trace in Westfield. Born in Boone County, Ind., on June 13, 1939, she was the daughter of the late Clarence B. and Edna Mae (Wills) Reddick.
Sue was a 1958 graduate of Sheridan High School. She began her career working for Western Electric on the assembly line. She worked in the cafeteria at Westfield High School for several years while her daughters were in school. She later hired on with the Carmel Clay School System as a bus aide.
Her strong faith and servant’s heart helped guide her throughout her life. She was a member of the Sheridan First Christian Church, the Little Eagle Creek Christian Church and the Venture Christian Church. Always taking an active role in church activities, she served as the CWF President for several years. Another example of her servant’s heart was her participation in many church missionary trips throughout the United States to help rebuild people’s homes.
For Sue, there was nothing in this world more important than her family. She was never very interested in activities that she couldn’t share in with those she loved. For over 30 years, she and her husband Darrell were active square dancers. They belonged to the Do-Si-Squares, where they took on the extra responsibility of serving as the President, Vice President, and Secretary for the club throughout the years. She also enjoyed sewing and knitting and would make Barbie clothes for her kids and grandchildren. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her pride and joy. She loved following all their activities.
Sue had a special bond with her twin sister, Lou. For many years, the two of them painted and wallpapered houses as a team. Later in life they began attending the Twin Days Festival celebrating multiple births in Twinsburg, Ohio. They always looked forward to this special time they got to spend with each other. More recently, their sister, Mary Rose started coming along to join in the fun.
Yard work and fussing over flowers was a labor of love for Sue. And when it came to her favorite movie stars, nobody even came close to Elvis. If Elvis was in it, Sue had seen it … multiple times. Sue also loved Christmas. For her, this was the holiday of holidays. She loved decorating for Christmas, and as soon as it was time for the decorations to come down (usually under protest), she was already thinking ahead to next year.
Her sweet and gentle nature will truly be missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her.
Sue is survived by the love of her life, her husband Darrell E. Morris. She and Darrell met at church camp, fell in love, and spent the rest of their lives by each other’s side. Sue and Darrell were married on June 5, 1960. She is also survived by her daughters, Tammy Gray (Don) of Fishers, Sherry Gould of Noblesville, and Sheila Boles (Frank) of Sheridan; four grandchildren, Kevin Gould (Katy) of Sheridan, Katie Sue Osborne of Westfield, Chelsea Lynn Lara of Noblesville, and Austin Gould (Bianca) of Sheridan; three bonus grandchildren, Draya Boles of Indianapolis, Larissa Boles of McCordsville, and Mariah Skirvin (Trevor) of Portland, Ind.; nine great-grandchildren, Alivia Gould, Liam Gould, Lincoln Gould, Waylon Gould, Gabe Lara, Coralyn Lara, Abel Skirvin, Zoey Skirvin, and Eme Skirvin; brother, Lyle Richard Reddick (Pat) of Noblesville; sisters, Mary Rose Martin of Indianapolis, Marcella Ann Edwards (John) of New Palestine, Beverly I. Trencher of Kokomo, and by her twin sister, Linda Lou Lewis (Jim) of Cicero; sisters-in-law, Maxine Reddick of Noblesville and Donna Reddick of Greenfield; many nieces and nephews; and her feline BFF and guardian angel, Gretta.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Clarence B. and Edna Mae (Wills) Reddick; brothers, Wayne, Larry, Donald Gene, Alonzo, Carroll, and William Reddick; sisters, Virginia Miller and Phyllis Manier; and by her feline furbabies, Amos and Andy.
