Obituary of Stephanie Jeane Morton

On the night of September 30, 2023 Stephanie Jeane Morton 69, took her last breath and God welcomed her into his kingdom with opened arms. She embraced his loving trust and followed him through the gates.

Stephanie was born September 18, 1954 to the late John Morton and Joan Wiseman Morton in Houston Texas and lived there till 1991. She then relocated to Austin Texas.

On March 20, 1980 she was blessed with her son Christopher Ryan.

She began her career in bookkeeping for several years then ventured into a position with a water management company for several more. After 25 years of dedication and commitment to the Senior Living Community she decided to then retire in 2017.

In 1999 Stephanie rekindled an old friendship with Dan Gagliano which turned into 25 years of wedded bliss. She then knew she had found her true soul mate and then in 2019 they felt it was time to take their show on the road. Dan and Stephanie sold their home and possessions, bought a motorhome and for the next 3 years lived full time exploring this beautiful country.

In 2022 they found a piece of property with a spiritual connection in Colorado across from Mesa Verde National Park and decided to build their forever home.

Stephanie was an incredible lady with great beauty inside and out along with an infectious smile. She touched many lives through her years and will be dearly missed.
