Matsy was born to the late Hollis Lynn and Jane Racheal (Hopkins) Morgan.
Matsy was described by her family as a kind hearted soul with a contagious smile. The memory she leaves with her family is her love for riding horses and painting. Matsy served as an Oxford School Teacher where she touched the lives of many children through her enrichment of English and Social Studies. When not in the classroom, Matsy was devoted to her family and granddaughter. Her family remembers her for being outgoing, intelligent, and carrying a witty personality that made those around her smile. Matsy will be missed by those she touched within her time here with us.

Went to school with Martha even since Mrs. Brock's kindergarten on Morningside Dr. We loved horses. Went to Brownies and Girl Scouts together, Springs Elementary, Springs Jr High, and Hialeah. I remember her father and mother. One of the good ones.

I remember Martha as always happy, smiling, vivacious with a wonderful personalty. I also remember her new burgandy Corvair she drove to school (not too envious). At the time, she was dating Kit Wyatt, a friend who played baseball at Hialeah. Nothing but fond memories of Martha.

I remember Martha always smiling and laughing. She was so much fun to be around. It is so sad to lose another classmate that was so full of life. Condolences to her family.
