Obituary of Ninnie Vee Morrison
Please share a memory of Ninnie to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Ninnie Vee “Tuffy” Morrison, 87, of Dunlap, TN passed away peacefully, Saturday, August 19, 2023. Tuffy was born April 12, 1936, to the late Joe and Clara Ashburn in Whitwell, TN. She was a loving mother, grandmother, and friend. Tuffy has been a faithful Christian woman her entire adult life and a member of the Church of God faith. She was an amazing cook, prayer warrior, and hard worker. There was never a time someone needed a comforting word of God that she was not there to encourage them in Christ. Although our hearts are breaking, we will celebrate her life and homegoing and will find comfort in knowing she is in heaven.
She is preceded in death by her husband of 62 years, Charlie “Boogus” Morrison; daughter, Myrna Nolan; parents, Joe and Clara Ashburn; brother, Elbert Ashburn; sister, Sheryl Green; granddaughter, Michelle Morrison.
