Wenonah B. Morrison, age 97 of Lexington, Indiana, formerly of Scottsburg, Indiana, the daughter of the late Edgar and Hazel (Bottoroff) Trueblood, was born on November 30, 1924 in Salem, Indiana. Early on, she worked at the Charlestown Powder Plant and was a homemaker throughout most of her life. She was united in marriage to James Ray Morrison and this union was blessed with four children: Ernest, Michael, Diana, and Shirley. She enjoyed helping out on the farm, milking cows, gardening, canning vegetables, and hosting family gatherings. She was a devout Christian and a 65 year member of the Kimberlin Creek Baptist Church, where she taught Bible school for many years and was a part of a group that sent out cards for birthdays, anniversaries, and those dealing with illness. In her spare time, she loved reading, sewing, embroidering, and watching the birds eat from her bird feeder. In her later years, she worked at the Scottsburg Nursing Home for a short time and was always taking care of others, especially by helping friends get to their appointments. Mrs. Morrison passed away on Friday, November 11, 2022 at the Thornton Terrace Health Campus in Hanover.
