Morgan Lee Curry

Morgan Lee Curry Saginaw, Michigan Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, great grand-father and friend Morgan Lee Curry passed away peacefully after a long illness with his wife Kathleen at his side on Sunday, April 22, 2018, in Saginaw Ml. He was born in Saginaw on March 10, 1935 to Morgan and Elsbeth (Abshagen) Curry, and was a graduate of Saginaw High School 1953. He served in the United States Air Force from 1954 until 1958. Morgan served as President/CEO of Fullerton Tool Company from 1973 until 2016, presiding over a period of great growth for the business. He loved to travel the world, and enjoyed documenting his travels with videos and photography books. He also greatly enjoyed theatre and the movies. Morgan truly had an appreciation for a great dinner, often taking a picture of his food, and countless times exclaiming, "This was the best ever!"

Morgan was a member of First United Methodist Church, and a longstanding member of the Saginaw Country Club. In addition to being a lifelong Saginaw resident, the family had a decades long history in Northport (Leelanau County), which began as camping trips and grew to a summer home, yielding countless dear friendships along the way. Morgan is held dearly in the hearts of his wife Kathleen Mary Curry of 63 years and his four children and spouses, Daughter in-law Marsha Curry, Pam (Raymond) Fouch, Traverse City, Ml; Michelle (Richard) Miller, Ironwood, Ml; Annette (David) Povich, Fort Myers, FL; Mathew (Cynthia) Curry, Huntington Beach, CA.
