Baby girl I can't express enough the impact you have had on me. Some days I think I hear your voice or forget that you are gone and I think of calling you or I drive by your street and temporarily forget that I can't just pick you up. I don't like this life without you, I can't wait for the day that we will be together again. You were a brightness in an otherwise cold darkness and I need that back. Part of me went with you and I can never have it back until we are together again so hold onto that part of me because I have nothing left to hold. I love you and I miss you more every day. Daddy

God saw Morgan getting tired, a cure was not to be. He wrapped her in his loving arms and whispered ‘Come with me.' Though she suffered much in silence, her spirit did not bend. She faced her pain with courage, until the very end. She tried so hard to stay with us but her fight was not in vain,
God took her to His loving home and freed her from the pain. Though our hearts break, find comfort in knowing the Lord keeps our Morgan safe and wrapped in his loving embrace.
I love you and miss you sweetie. Love always, Grandma Deb

Morgan (Mo, for short) was a wonderful addition to my 4th grade class at Monroe Elementary. She was a student I will never forget for so many reasons. She was witty, sensible, wise, responsible, silly and so much fun! I am so honored to have known her. She will remain an inspiration to me and a reminder to keep on during life's hardest times.
