Nola Morton

On Friday, May 29, 2020 the Lord took home another angel, Nola J. Morton (nee Horning), 63.
Nola passed on at her home to be with her Lord. Born and raised in Beechwood, Wisconsin,
Nola was a daughter to the late Larry and Norma (Jaeger) Horning. Nola graduated from
Kewaskum High School in 1975. Her varied jobs included bartending in both Beechwood and
Cascade. She went to Moraine Park Technical College and received her Cosmetology license.
Nola opened her own shop in Cascade called the Hair Factory alongside working for Here’s
W’hair in Waldo. In 1993 Nola married the love of her life William (Willie) Morton and they
resided in the Town of Mitchell. Nola loved listening to the Oldies and Rock ‘n Roll and she
could just about name any singer and song. Nola always looked forward to spring for the
Orioles, Cardinals and Hummingbirds. Her many flower gardens and bird feeders were a great
passion and a comfort to her.
Nola is survived by her husband William, three brothers; Glenn (Mary) Horning of Batavia, Russ
(Cindy) Horning and Jim (Kim) Horning both of Beechwood, and one sister, Nancy Horning of
Kewaskum. Nola is further survived by her mother-in-law Dolores Morton of Sheboygan,
brother-in-law Michael Morton of Sheboygan and sister-in-law Laurie (Doug) Wolf of
Kewaskum. Many nephews and one niece also survive. Nola had many friends throughout her
life; Barb Lohr, Sandy Dreckschmidt and a special one; Donna (Garry) TenPas of Cascade. She
also had a very special buddy, Mr. Fuzz, her cat.
Nola was preceded in death by her parents, one infant sister, Noelle, her father in law, Willaim
Morton and special aunt, Dolores (Pete) Peters.
Cremation will take place and a family gathering to remember Nola will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, Nola requested that every time you see one of God’s angels, a cardinal, you
think of her. Memorials in her name may be directed to the family.
Nola’s husband thanks Kelly Dawson from Aurora Palliative Care and the staff at Sharon S.
Richardson Community Hospice, especially Lynn and Amanda for their special love and kindness
extended to Nola. “You’re very special people and I thank you.”
Wittkopp Funeral and Cremation Service of Plymouth is serving the family.
