Dear Mrs. Helen, Know the prayers of our family are with you at this time. Mr. Morgan will always be held in high esteem as one of my favorite gospel singers. He always encouraged me in my singing and that was important to a little girl who had lost her Daddy. I'll never forget him. Thanks for sharing him with us. If I can be of service to you, please do not hesitate to let me know. (228)868-1207 or (228)896-0612.

Dear Aunt Helen, I am so sorry for your loss and am so sorry that I didn't know. I should've done a better job at staying in touch. Uncle Demp was a special man and touched many lives. We have all been blessed to have known him. I do love you dearly and appreciate all that you and Uncle Demp have done for me and my family throughout the years. You remain as always in my thoughts, my heart and in my prayers. Susie
