Valerie was born March 11, 1956 in Kansas City, Missouri. The daughter of Ray and Bessie Lorene (Cross) Morgan. As the daughter of a Shriner, Valerie grew up in Job’s daughters, which was the start to the faith driven life she lived. You could always find her in one of her happy places; rocking babies in the church nursery, or meeting with any of the groups she was involved in like the EPIC Sisterhood or Called to Influence. For many years she was a member of the Khrome Cowgirls chapter of Women in the Wind; an all women’s motorcycle club where many of her most cherished friendships began. She was a pure soul who loved and accepted everyone no matter who they were or where they came from. She was recently described by her best friends as “the most non-judgemental, loving woman they have ever met.”
She was preceded in death by her parents; and brother, Ronald Morgan.
Valerie is survived by her husband, Raymond Guyett of the home; 6 children: son, Mike Guyett (Amy) of Chillicothe, MO; daughter, Amiee Wahlen (Steve) of Lees Summit, MO; son, Steve Guyett (Kristie) of Oak Grove, MO; Daughter, Samatha Harris of Grain Valley, MO; son, Jesse Wilkes (Amanda) of Kansas City, MO; and daughter, Shawna Whittemore (James) of Warsaw, MO; 3 siblings: brother, Don Morgan of Choctaw, OK; brother, Dale Morgan (Kathy) of Kingsville, MO; and sister, Helen Scheid (Gary) of Tiffin, OH; as well as 21 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews.

5 Jan 2024Valerie was one the nicest, warmest and embracing person I have ever known. She never complained, always had a smile when she saw you and welcomed Dave and I into her ever growing family. I will miss her. She will always be in my heart. Rest in peace sweet Valorie!

10 Jan 2024I worked with Valerie at DST / BRCC, I out of our El Dorado Hills CA office and Valerie out of the Kansas City, MO office. Valerie was always willing to help answer my questions, and I always enjoyed our personal conversations as well. I lost contact with her when she retired and I am sad about that. I will always remember her.
