Gregory Morcom Obituary

In Loving Memory of our Son
Gregory John Morcom
April 21, 1964 - Sept. 16 2011



The biggest fear that parents have is losing a child. That fear became a reality for us one year ago when a tragic plane crash in Reno, NV suddenly took you from us. You had just recently re-joined our family and we were enjoying our newfound relationship and the immense help you were to us in maintaining our home and yard. You had turned your life around and through a lot of effort, determination and suffering, you beat the illness that had befallen you. The large number of friends that mourn your loss is a testament to the life you led. Your great sense of what was right and fair, your ability to make and keep friends, your unselfish nature to help others without expecting anything in return and of course your wonderful sense of humor, comforts us in our sorrow. We are forever grateful for the wonderful memories you left us growing up in Bellevue, especially your love of, and skills at, sports, motor-cycling, and snowmobiling. Greg, we love you and will miss you always.
