Anna Marie Morton

In loving memory of Maria, who brought light and joy to all who knew her. She was a
beacon of positivity, always ready with a smile and a kind word for everyone she ever met.
Her warm heart and generous spirit touched the lives of so many, making friends
everywhere she went.
Maria had a way of making everyone feel special and valued, and her unwavering
optimism was a source of strength and inspiration to us all. She truly lived life to the
fullest, embracing each day with grace and gratitude. She lived her life with a servant’s
heart.
Her presence will be deeply missed, but her memory will live on in the hearts of all who
were lucky enough to know her. Your kindness and friendship will never be forgotten.
Maria will always be remembered by a community of grateful hearts, and friends who will
forever cherish the memories of her laughter and kindness.
Maria is survived by her loving husband, Allyn; her devoted daughters, Georganna &
Kayla and husband Adam; grandchildren, Harper and Zeke; her sister, Josie Hickom and
family: sister, Carol Jolly and family: and brother, Victor Herec and family: and her favorite
sister-in-law Anne Morton. She is also survived by the fabulous Brooklyn Spinney and
family, and the ever so loved Yeshe.
She is graciously met in Heaven by her parents, Haralson and Adell Liles, and in-laws
Allyn Sr. and Barbra Morton, and her little brother Alfred.
Though she may no longer be with us in body, her spirit lives on in the hearts of all who
were touched by her warmth and compassion. Rest in peace Mama Mia.
Services will be held on Monday, March, 25, 2024 at 2:00 PM at the Holly Cross Church in
Valle Crusis with a Celebration of Life to follow.
Together, we will honor and remember Maria's life with love, laughter, and cherished
memories.
Your presence and support are deeply appreciated during this time of remembrance.
Please know that it's okay if you can only make the service or the Celebration of Life. Your
thoughts and prayers are felt and valued no matter how you choose to join us.
