Keith G Morgan

Keith G Morgan of Washington, Utah passed away on August 25th, surrounded by his loving family. Keith was born on February 11, 1945, in Murray, Utah, the youngest child of Iris Bell Morgan and Mable Gerrard Morgan. He graduated from Granger High School in 1963, then went on to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the North British Mission from 1964 to 1966. Upon returning from his mission, Keith attended BYU where he earned a degree in Physical Education in 1969. During his time at BYU, Keith met the love of his life. He married Kay Mitchell on June 5, 1967 in the Salt Lake City Temple where they were sealed for time and all eternity. The two were happily married for over 58 years, and raised 7 children together. Their marriage was marked by love and laughter. They endlessly supported each other and their beloved children. Keith joined the United States Air Force in 1969 and was stationed at Shepherd Air Force Base in Texas and Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma where he worked in the hospital as a lab technician, until he was honorably discharged in 1973. Keith loved his country and was very proud of his military service. Keith and Kay dedicated their lives to the service of others. Together they served three missions for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. From 2009–2010 they served at the Deseret Cattle and Citrus Ranch in St. Cloud, Florida, where they returned to serve again from 2011–2012. Their third mission was at Camp Zarahemla in Washington State from March – September of 2016. Keith worked as a Master Journeyman Plumber for most of his life. He worked for Budd Rich Plumbing for over 25 years, then ventured off to start his own business. Keith successfully ran Morgan Plumbing for 15 years and then semi-retired from that business before moving to St. George. However, peaceful retirement was not enough for such a service-oriented and hardworking man. When they first arrived in St. George, he worked at Standard Plumbing for two years. From 2017 to 2023, Keith was a valet at the St. George Regional Hospital. He loved helping the patients so much that he was getting ready to start volunteering again at the hospital. Keith was a devout member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and served in various callings throughout his life. In the Hunter 10th Ward in West Valley City, UT, Keith served as a Counselor in the Bishopric, Bishop, and Young Men’s President. In the Hunter East Stake, Keith was a Counselor in the Stake Presidency. In the Washington Fields Stake and eventually the Washington East Stake he served on the High Council. While Keith’s accomplishments and accolades could fill pages alone, his real legacy is of his love. Devoted to the service of others, he never hesitated to put the needs of those around him before his own. Whether through quiet acts of kindness, thoughtful words, or rolling up his sleeves to help with hard work, he gave of himself freely and completely. His life was a living example of love in action. Faith was the foundation of everything he did. His spiritual strength was a constant source of comfort and inspiration, not only to his family but to everyone who crossed his path. To know him was to feel a piece of God’s love reflected in the way he cared for others. But alongside his devotion and service was a vibrant sense of humor that could light up any room. He had a way of finding laughter even in life’s toughest moments, and his quick wit and playful spirit brought joy to countless people. He had that special kind of humor that made you feel lighter, no matter how heavy the day had been. Each time we hear a terrible yet hilarious dad joke, we’ll think of Keith. His legacy cannot be measured by accomplishments alone, but in the countless lives he touched. He will be remembered as someone who loved fiercely, served faithfully, and laughed freely—a man who brought heaven a little closer to earth for all of us. Remaining to cherish Keith’s memory are his devoted wife, Kay Morgan; his adoring children, Kristin Pinter (Jeff), Kenny Morgan, Suzanne Isom (Shawn), Allisyn Isaacson (Ron), Brandon Morgan (Amanda), Anna Staley (Ryan), and Peter Morgan (Cori); his loving grandchildren, Ashlee Dall (Sam), Caitlin Pehrson, Matthew Pinter (Rikki), Bailey Clark (Gavin), Zach Morgan (Espa), Kalani Hayes (Jonah), Lexi Wright, Sam Morgan, Jenna Pinter, Megan Staley, Sarah Pinter, Kyla Morgan, Dallin Wright, Erika Wright, Reese Morgan, Ruben Morgan, Morgan Staley, Bella Morgan, Ryder Morgan, Hudson Morgan, and Luke Wright, his great-grandchild Lachlan Pinter, and his puppy – his favorite child – Gus. Preceding Keith in death are his parents, Iris and Mable Morgan; siblings, Marloe Morgan, LaVell Bennion, Elaine Wilding, Vernon Morgan, and Janice Morgan; and his niece and nephew, Joyce Riding and David Morgan.
