Morg "Senior" was one of the great citizens of the Berkshires and an impassioned observer of the natural world. Happily this has noticeably passed on to his son!

Dear Morgan,
What a wonderful and thoughtful tribute to your father. As you know, I was fortunate enough to work with your father for many years and on the occasions that I spent time in his company I did come to realize he was someone that lived every day to the fullest.
Your father left a extraordinary legacy to all who knew him, I will remember always his absolute love for his family and his great passion for the enviroment.

I always thought of Morgan as a friend. He was truely a gentle man. I was lucky to be a Regional Ecologist for The Trustees of Reservations when Morgan worked so hard to see the completion of many projects at Bartholows Cobble. He will be missed by many. My best to you MB, you had a great dad.

I've always known that the Bulkeley family was an incredible one beyond words, but until I read this obituary I didn't realize how truly amazing this family is. I was, am and always will be proud to be a Bulkeley High School alumnus. Judy Alexander Parnasa, Jerusalem, Israel, Class of 1970
