Morgan Faith West, 24

Ms. Morgan Faith West, 24, of McMinnville was taken too soon from this life on Thursday, Dec. 11, 2025 from a tragic accident. She was born on Dec. 10, 2001 to parents Andy and Tiffany West. She was a member of First Baptist Church and had just completed her nursing requirements. She was dedicated to her education as she was looking forward to making a career out of helping others as a nurse. Morgan loved fashion and styling different pieces and making a statement outfit. She cherished the memories she made with her nephew who she adored, Owen, and with her family and her friends.

Morgan had a joyful spirit and a heart that reached for others in every moment. Her beauty radiated from the inside out, and her kindness touched countless lives. Morgan loved to travel and had a gift for finding beauty wherever she went—whether in people, places or the small moments others might overlook. Her life, though heartbreakingly short, was filled with purpose, laughter and the kind of love that lingers long after someone leaves this world.

She is survived by her loving parents, Andy and Tiffany West; paternal grandparents, Brenda and Phillip West; maternal grandparents, Sonya Goudeau, Jimmy Owen and Mary Catherine (Jerome) Fulton; brothers, Baylee (Megan) West and Carter West; nephew, Owen West; life-long best friend, Molly McGinnis, who was like a sister; and her committed boyfriend, Dakota Jones. Many special aunts, uncles and cousins also survive. She is preceded in death by her great aunt Janiece Goudeau and uncle Stephen Weeter.

Funeral service for Morgan Faith is scheduled for 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 14, 2025 in the McMinnville Funeral Home Chapel. Interment will follow at Bethlehem Cemetery. The family will receive friends on Saturday from 3 p.m. until 7 p.m. and again on Sunday from 10 a.m. until the time of service at 2 p.m.
