Willard A. Morton

September 19, 1950 — June 28, 2025

Vicksburg, MI

Willard A. Morton, affectionately known as Bill, passed away on June 28, 2025, in Kalamazoo, Michigan, at the age of 74. Born on September 19, 1950, in Flint, Michigan, Bill lived a life marked by dedication and a deep sense of loyalty, particularly to his family and friends.

Bill dedicated many years of his life to working as a janitor with the Old Mill Project in Vicksburg, as well as at the police station and with the Historical Society cleaning the museum. His commitment to his work was a reflection of his strong work ethic and sense of responsibility. In addition to his professional pursuits, Bill served in the Marines, a chapter in his life that shaped his character and values.

In his later years, Bill found peace and purpose through his faith, following a transformative encounter with a local pastor, Rob Krauss. This pivotal moment led him down a path of healing and spiritual fulfillment, which he cherished deeply.

Known for his kindness, Bill had an engaging personality that endeared him to many. He enjoyed simple pleasures, such as watching television shows like the Three Stooges and Abbott and Costello, which brought joy and laughter to his days. A devoted husband, he took great pleasure in his wife Sandy's cooking, always cherishing the moments spent together.

Bill is survived by his loving wife, Sandy Morton; his daughter, Monika Lubrick; his step-daughter, Candice Harback; and his three grandchildren, Kody Boley, Alexandria Harback, and Aiden Harback.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Willard Morton and Lucy Sherbenaut; along with his two sisters, Linda and Janice; and brother, David.

The memory of Bill Morton will live on in the hearts of all who knew him, a testament to a life lived with loyalty, kindness, and a newfound faith that guided him through his journey.
