About the Author
Angie Epting Morris is the daughter of attorney Eugene A. Epting of Athens, Georgia. From her years growing up, she remembers her father’s stories about estate settlements and his advice on how to avoid family conflict in these situations. When both of her parents died in 1993, she, along with her two sisters and her brother – faced the task of settling the estate. By putting to use the advice of their father, they were able to accomplish this with remarkable success. They emerged from the process as better friends than they had been when they started and remain close still.
After ten years of giving out this information to many friends and acquaintances, and after receiving back countless stories of praise and gratitude for the enlightening advice, Angie began realizing that she should take this message to the world.
When her husband’s mother passed away in 2003, he asked Angie to give copies of this information to his brothers and sister so they could use it to settle her estate. After this “vote of confidence” from those who knew her best, she concluded that this was indeed something that would help many people facing similar circumstances in years to come.
It is her hope that it will assist others in achieving a peaceful estate settlement, thereby protecting family relationships and helping families avoid conflict.
Angie graduated from the University of Georgia in 1968 with a B.S. Degree in geography and majored in cartography (i.e., map-making). This led to employment as a professional cartographer for the Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C., in 1969. There she had a blind date with Carter Morris, a young Naval Officer who was serving as a White House Military Social Aide.
After they were married in 1972, they made their home in Evans, Georgia, outside of Augusta, and raised two sons, Hunter and Taylor, now grown. Carter became a high school teacher and coach. Angie taught high school English and geography for three years before opening a retail travel agency in Augusta – Morris Travel.
She also eventually opened a state accredited travel school to train travel industry personnel, which she operated simultaneously with the agency. These experiences added to her qualification as a teacher – only that now she instructs others on the process of estate settlement.
She has become recognized as an expert on “How to Settle an Estate Peacefully and Fairly.” Not only does she tell you what to do, but she also gives specific instructions on how to do this with a step-by-step guide called The Settlement Game: How to Settle an Estate Peacefully and Fairly.
