Julia Georgianna Morgan, 91 of Newport Rhode Island, affectionately known as “Bowie”, passed away peacefully at Newport Hospital on April 30, 2021, surrounded by her loving family. Julia was born in Fall River, MA on November 28, 1929 to the late Francisco and Georgianna Mello.
Julia was the beloved and devoted wife of Ralph E. Morgan, to whom she was married to for 70 wonderful years. Julia attended Newport Schools and graduated from The Fall River School of Beauty in 1950. Julia’s true passion in life was her family. Along with her husband, she raised four children while working out of her home as a beautician. She also held positions as a teacher’s aide for Special Need Children at Underwood School and as a housekeeper for Salve Regina University. Later in life her focus was being “Bowie”, the dedicated, loving and nurturing VoVo to her four grandchildren and two great grandchildren. She along with her husband, had an influential role in their upbringing, taking care of all of them daily as their parents went off to work. The comfort this gave her own children cannot be overstated and we are eternally grateful. Her reward is the unbreakable bond she had with all her grandchildren that will live on forever in their hearts.
