He attended South Plains College and was making plans to return to school to earn his degree and eventually to join the military. Morgan was employed by Gailey Fire Protection as an installer of fire sprinkler systems and was also a mechanic for Lime. Morgan’s infectious smile and deep dimples were inherited by his daughter, Luna. He was a devoted father and big brother and spent many days playing in the floor and watching Frozen over and over. He loved playing guitar and video games and watching the Houston Texans, with the exception of the day Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs knocked the Texans out of the playoffs. Morgan donated his organs and gave the ultimate gift of life to four recipients. His heart was recovered for a 57-year-old female who waited 182 days for her gift.

His left kidney was recovered for a 17 year-old-female who waited 685 days for a miracle. Morgan is survived by his girlfriend, Iliana Pecina, and their daughter Luna; his mother Melissa Sharp and brother Mason; his father Scott Duncan; his paternal grandmother, Suzanne Witcher; his paternal grandfather Robert Duncan and his wife Kathy, and a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
