Marcia Bentley Morgan, 88, died March 6 in Lakewood, Colorado. Originally from La Grange, Illinois, Marcia moved to Pacific Palisades and married the late George Eldred Morgan. They lived on Bollinger Drive until the mid-1980’s when, after Marcia’s retirement from safety deposit box management at Security Pacific Bank, they moved to Maine and finally to Colorado to be closer to family. Marcia enjoyed nature, golf, gardening and volunteer work wherever she lived. She loved the beach, birds, and the collection and arrangement of treasures’found stones, shells, glass and antiques. She was crafty and artistic, a watercolorist. She had a twinkle in her eye, an arch sense of humor, intense opinions, generous affections and special causes: she loved fun and wanted everyone to have it. Her whole family was supported by her encouragement and generosity. Marcia is survived by her two daughters, Susan M. Bentley M.D. (husband Kim R. Jonason, Ph.D.) of Louisville, Kentucky, and Julia Bowen Love (husband Jerald) of Littleton, Colorado; four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; her brother, Duncan Fisher; two brothers-in-law, their spouses, partners and families. She will be remembered by her step-children and step-grandchildren, the Morgans and Tanners. A memorial service was held in Colorado.
