As Morgan County coroner, Marcy Patterson looks for the answers about a person’s death and well as tries to soften the sting of tragedy for those left behind.
“For me, it is more about the ability to be a stable force for families on the very worst day of their life,” Patterson said. “When someone passes away, there are steps that must legally be taken, but I like being able to also help families during that time.”
