Maggie Helen
Morris
February 12, 1927 – July 16, 2020
Maggie Kennedy Thomas Morris, a long time Little Rock resident, passed away peacefully into eternal rest on July 16, 2020. She was born February 12, 1927 in Havana, Arkansas and graduated from Havana High School in 1945. She was preceded in death by her parents, Pearl Mott and Artemus Kennedy; her daughter, Marianne Snipes; and her siblings, J.H. Kennedy, A.M. (Dump) Kennedy, and Geniece Terry.
Maggie is survived by four of her children: Diane Valentine (Jimmy) of Paris, Arkansas; Claude Thomas (Ellen) of Lavaca, Arkansas; Martha Klinger (Michael) of Williamsburg, Virginia; and John Thomas (Tammy) of Hensley, Arkansas. She has eleven grandchildren, seventeen great grandchildren, and eight great-great grandchildren.
Maggie was always very active in the Nazarene Church and was an avid shopper. She enjoyed cooking, holidays, and family gatherings. In her younger years she enjoyed volunteering in voter registrations and the food bank. She worked for Bruno's Little Italy for around twenty years and loved all her customers.
She was very fond of her nephews John and Lonnie Kennedy, and a special note of gratitude to John Kennedy for his numerous years of caring, attention, and love for our mother during her years of illness. Our thanks to Robinson Nursing Home for the care of our mother.
