While each one of us will miss his overseeing and loving authority, what we’ll miss most is that distinct giggle that could be heard every time he’d reel in a fish (usually a mountain trout)! Just imagine him standing alongside that Crystal Lake in Heaven … as he giggles with his Creator into the breeze over the water as he enjoys the trees, the majesty and the embrace of the Master. Let us all celebrate Morgan … and giggle.
