Dennis,
My condolences to you and all of
your family, you all are in my
thoughts and prayers!

Dear Dennis:
My Mom sent me the great article about your Mom, I received it yesterday. She really did so much for the art community. Having the Morgans as a part of my childhood and early adulthood was a unique priviledge. Your Mother was always very nice and polite to me when I would visit. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Bob, Susie, Danny, and Brett.



For KCAI students in the 1970s, the Morgan Gallery was a major destination for contemporary art. I remember seeing all kinds of works there. Myra and Jim showed student works and emerging artists as well as nationally prominent artists. I felt welcome there. The atmosphere was relaxed yet also very serious - serious about the experience of being with and looking at contemporary art.

Myra’s passion for art was evident when I returned to Kansas City in the 1990s. Thanks to...

The Morgan Family,
My husband at the time and I lived in Prairie Village from 1967 to 1972 and knew your parents very well. As a matter of fact we really enjoyed your Fathers' light paintings. My ex worked with your Father at TWA and we were sorry when we lost him as well. You are left with a legacy left by your Mother and I am sure you will continue in her foot steps Dennis.
God bless and keep you all.

We were the "neighbors on the corner" for many years and the Birds before that. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.

Dennis,
Our condolences to you and your family. Vicki and I remember grilling steak's out on your parent's patio. We loved touring the Morgan home since there were so many great contemporary art objects to view. My Dad who at the time owned the L'omega Gallery thought your folk's had some of the most unique offering he had ever seen.

Dennis, Denise, Dink and extended family: I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have some wonderful memories of the Morgan Circle and your mother. She was a very kind and generous lady. You should all be very proud of her accomplishments. My family's thoughts and prayers go out to you during this difficult time.

Myra's husband Jim, & I started with TWA the same day, Aug. 10, 1964. We were close friends for many years, the kids were all young then. My condolences & best wishes to all the family.
