Brenda Sue

Morgan

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Brenda Sue (Buuck) Morgan, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend, who passed peacefully on November 13th , 2026, at home with family by her side after a gallant battle with melanoma cancer.

Brenda was born on August 3, 1958, in Fort Wayne, IN to Harold and Wanda Buuck. She graduated from R. Nelson Snider High School in 1976. She had a notable career in insurance, even serving as President of the Fort Wayne Insurance Adjusters Association, before starting her 35-year career at Parkview Hospital. Brenda began her career in registration at Parkview in 1988, working 5 years in ER registration. She spent
the next 18 years working as an Administrative Assistant in Trauma Services, during which time she assisted her team, who worked to bring Parkview to a Level II Trauma Center status and started the flight program. She assisted in the planning and event coordination of the Trauma Symposium for 18 years. She worked for the Center for Healthy Living for 2 years before accepting a position as an Executive Assistant at the Mirro Center for Research and Innovation. In 2016, Brenda accepted the position of Administrative Supervisor and remained in that role until she retired in 2023.

Even more impressive than her professional life is the love and compassion she poured into her personal one. She was a doting wife to her husband of 47 years, a devoted mother to her 3 children, an adoring grandma to her 13 grandchildren, 1 great-granddaughter; a loving "Dog Mom" to her Golden Retriever, Maverick, and overall, an amazing human. Brenda was always the first to offer comfort during a difficult time. Offering an unlimited listening ear to anyone who needed it and putting her entire self into being a “fixer”. Whether she was sticking up for the underdog, giving the best advice on life, or being the first one on the dance floor, her altruism touched so many hearts, and her fiery spirit brought smiles to so many faces. She carried life’s challenges with a quiet grace, unshakeable faith, and a stubborn optimism. Brenda spent her life trying to make others happy and would adamantly insist no one be sad at her passing, saying, "I feel your love and that is more than enough – no sadness needed".

Brenda is survived by her beloved husband, Gary Morgan; her children, Justin (Heather) Williams, Tyler (Ashley) Morgan, and Kelsey (David) Townsend; her grandchildren, Kallista, Memphis, Cora, Charli, Charlotte, Bentley, Harper, Tommy, Dalton, Jack, Wren, Taylor, and Logan; great-granddaughter, Wesley; her mother, Wanda J. (Sanders) Buuck; her sister Kathy (Joe) Horstman; as well as her nieces and nephew, and numerous loved ones. She was preceded in death by her father, Harold D. Buuck; and her brother, Terry D. Buuck. Her family has found comfort knowing Brenda is at peace with the Lord and has her toes in the sand on a beautiful heavenly beach.

A Celebration of Life is 3:00 pm - 7:00 pm on Thursday, December 3, 2026, at Pine Valley Country Club, 10900 Pine Mills Rd., Fort Wayne, IN 46845. The family encourages guests to wear beach attire. To sign the online guestbook, go to www.fairhavenfortwayne.com
