Marjorie “Margie” Kross never met her biological father.
He died at the hands of the Japanese military while serving in the Pacific Theatre during World War II. His remains were buried in a cemetery in the Philippines city of Manila.
Kross was in El Reno last week. She was here to, as she said, “continue putting the puzzle together.”
Kross’ biological father was Howard Morgan. He was a 1936 graduate of El Reno High School. He’s also one of the “44” from El Reno public schools who died as a result of serving in World War II.
