To the Fottrell Family,
As a young golf Professional, I had the pleasure of knowing and becoming friends with Morgan and son Michael. It brings some sadness in his passing, but also great joy in knowing him and playing golf with him at Desert Aire, Bermuda Dunes and Indian Wells... All the best...

Unfortunately there are very few people of his stature. He had a cerain charm about him that attracted everyone to him on their first encounter with Morgan.

I felt very sad upon learing of Morgan's passing. He was very nice to me while working with him in conjunction with the U.S. National Seniors events and after. I always enjoyed listening to his stories and will miss him. My deepest sympathies for you and your family.
Sincerely,

Our prayers are with all of your family. Morgan was such a special person to us. We met him on the driving range at the Citrus where we spent many fun hours "at the office" He was a kind, thoughtful, true gentleman. We still talk about the special parchment salmon at your home.

Dear Alvida and family,
I knew Morgan since 1953. I took lessons from him at Del Rio CC and played many rounds of golf with him and his friends Bob Weeks and Dick Giddings in Palm Desert. Lots of memories. He was great fun and will be missed. My condolences to you and your family.
