"Nadine Morgan, 49, of Welch, West Virginia, passed away Saturday, December 6, 2025, at Cabell Huntington Hospital in Huntington, WV. Born on June 7, 1976, in Welch, WV, she was the beloved daughter of Steven and Connie Taylor.

"Nadine’s life was marked by her fierce love for family and her bold, free-spirited nature. More than anything, she adored her grandbabies, Asher Ray and Harper Olivia Morgan—they were the light of her life and her proudest joy. Nadine loved being outdoors, especially when she was fishing, riding four-wheelers, or cruising around backroads with her friends, laughing and living life to the fullest. She lived loud, loved hard, and left memories that will forever echo in the hearts of those who knew her best.

"She was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Ernest and Martha Mitchell; her paternal grandparents, James Rose and Louise Kerney; her sister-in-law, Flo Taylor; her best friend, Renada Graham; cousin, Jessica “Cub Bear” Justice; and her dear friend, Bradley Dewayne Dawson.

"Nadine leaves behind a family who loved her deeply: her parents, Steve and Connie Taylor; her son, Cody Morgan and his companion, Cheyenne Estep; her precious grandbabies, Asher Ray Morgan and Harper Olivia Morgan; her sister, Melinda McNeely and husband Jeff; her brothers, Allen and Richard Taylor; and her boyfriend, Ralph Justice.

"She is also survived by nieces and nephews: Jason Blevins and wife Brittany and their daughter Jayda, Larissa Taylor, and Faith Taylor. Her aunts Diana Justice, Mary Reed, and Deborah Mitchem; and many cousins and their families: Amy Riggs and husband Darrell and their children Faith and Trey, Johnny Justice and his daughter Leighton, Mikey Reed, Kayla Melnik and husband Nick and their children Corey, Kaitlyn, and Karlie, Kenny Mitchem, Ashley Lester and husband Cody and their children Novanna, Asher, and Penelope, Heather Mitchem and her children Keiley and Cain, and Danielle Groves and husband Jessie and their son Cameron.

"Friends may visit the family at the Big Sandy Lighthouse Church in Big Sandy, WV on Friday, December 12, 2025, from 1 o’clock until the time of services at 2 o’clock.

"Funeral services will be conducted Friday, December 12, 2025, at 2 o’clock with Pastor Marie Bolden and Pastor Otis Lester officiating at the Big Sandy Lighthouse Church in Big Sandy, WV
