LeRoy "Lee" Gilbert Morgan Jr.

LeRoy G. Morgan Jr., (79), formerly of Sellersville, passed away, with his daughters by his side, on Wednesday, Feb. 28, 2024, at St Lukes Hospice in Bethlehem. He was married to the love of his life, Judith A (Dedrick) Morgan for 32 years until her passing in 2007. He was a resident at The Village at LifeQuest Assisted Living in Quakertown. Born in Philadelphia on January 28, 1945, he was the son of the late LeRoy G. Morgan Sr. and Margaret J. (McCurdy) Morgan. He was a 1964 graduate of Abington High School, Abington, PA. Following high school, he served our country honorably in the U.S. Navy, 1964 - 1968, during the Vietnam War. Lee later graduated from Penn State, Abington with certifications in Machine & Tool Design. Lee worked as a Draftsman Layout Designer for Moore Products/Siemens for 28 years, and later in Penn Color’s QC dept. until retiring in 2010. He was a member of the American Legion Post #255 in Sellersville.

Lee was an avid outdoorsman and he loved to travel and go camping with his family. He found solace in nature; whether it was bird-watching, hiking, swimming laps in the ocean or enjoying a summer breeze while watching a sunset. He loved to scare the bejesus out of his daughters, niece and nephew by playing “shark” in the pool and also, the neighborhood kids by jumping out from behind trees while playing Capture the Flag on summer nights. He loved taking his daughters on adventures; hunting, fishing, crabbing, clamming, horseback riding, and foraging for mushrooms. Lee made the best snow mountains for his girls to climb and took them on all the best amusement park rides. He loved music and movies. Lee was a jack-of-all-trades. He was the family mechanic, plumber, electrician, gardener and carpenter. Lee had a way with animals and there wasn’t a cat or dog who met him that didn’t adore him.

Lee is survived by his two daughters: Jennifer Romendio (Vincent) of Coopersburg, PA, Kimbralee Haberle (Christian) of Quakertown, PA; five grandchildren: Xander and Xavier Romendio; Austin, Brice, and Colt Haberle. He is also survived by his sister, Mary (Morgan) Batchelor, his niece, Robin and nephew, Ray, along with his sister-in-law, Linda Dedrick and nephew Joseph. Lee was predeceased by his parents, “Buzz” and Peggy, his wife, Judy, his granddaughter, Willow Ann Romendio and his brother-in-law, Ron Batchelor.
