Dennis Morgan was born Stanley Morner in the small town of Prentice,

The Very Thought of You (1944).

His engaging performance as seaman "Jefferson Jones", with
Barbara Stanwyck and a wonderful
supporting cast, has made

a holiday favorite. Morgan retired in the late 1950s, but did cameos
now and then. He and his wife were married for 61 years, and he passed
away in 1994. He had three children, Stanley Jr.,
