Michael "Seth" Morgan

So many more lives have been lost due to addiction since I wrote last. The pandemic has taken over the news. Since the loss of my son I continue to pray for all the young people getting caught up with the disease. I hope your family is healing. Stay strong.

I'm reading this young man's obituary and he sounds like he was an amazing person. It's beautiful his family has these memories of him.

To the family of Michael. I have been reading stories of all these young men and women losing their fight with this horrible opiate addiction. I too lost a son Michael due to heroin addiction. He didn't overdose he died from meningitis. He was clean for a little over two months but got fungal meningitis and went into cardiac arrest. He was on life support for less than two days and we had to take him off. His immune system was compromised due to years of heroin addiction. It's been a year and being his Mom I can't get myself together. I miss him so much I'm so lost without him. God bless your family. I hope they find a way to stop this crazy epidemic. So many beautiful families are being destroyed. Much love to all of your family.

SO very saddening....to the young Daughter/Parents/Siblings/Grandparents/Loved Ones....I am so very sorry and heartbroken for you to read about your beloved Father/Son/Brother/Grandson/Loved one losing his battle against an unrelenting disease....it just doesn't seem right. I take Solace with you and believe Michael is soaring amongst Angles and is Safe in the Loving Arms Of Our Heavenly Father....my heartfelt condolences to all who knew this young man who was so determined to overcome this disease ....Psalm 147:3

I did not know Seth but my brother did and shared this most moving tribute with me. Thank you for sharing the true nature of addiction and the life of those who are caught in its grasp. Obituaries such as this help break the stigma. Thank you to you and Seth.

God bless this young man , it is a hard struggle , he is with God now with his wings. No pain , no addiction

Seth's story and his personality sound so much like that of our 26 year old son whose life has been ravaged by drugs since college and who is currently fighting his battle in long term rehab. My tears flowed reading the obituary because I know the heartbreak of loving an addict . Thank you for your beautiful words about your son and about addiction. You honored him and all those whose lives have been touched by addiction, and I hope you helped people who don't know this world
to understand it just a bit better. My heart goes out to you because you have experienced what we as parents of addicts all fear. I pray for your family , and I thank you for your boldness in writing this beautiful tribute.

Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. I did not know your son, but when a friend posted his obituary on fb, I read it because she felt Seth was special enough to share about his life. Whoever wrote his obituary is a strong and courageous person. It was raw, powerful, and straightforward; non-sugar coated, and touched my soul. Working with addiction, I witness the struggles people go through on a daily basis. Addiction has no boundaries. I'm sorry his life was cut so short because of drugs. May God's Peace Be with You, and Our Lord watch over little Ella.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Your honesty and courage in honoring Seth are beautiful, and I have no doubt that the light of his love will guide you through the days ahead.

This tribute to Seth really pulls on my heartstrings and hits home in so many ways. Addiction has also hit my family hard for generations. It is a sad, terrible disease. Thank you for sharing your journey publically. I pray that it will help you heal, bring you eventual peace and perhaps help others who are struggling with addiction. Abundant prayers are going up for all of you. ❤

My thoughts and prayers are with you; terrible to lose someone so young and who fought so hard.

Soo very sorry for your loss. We will pray for your family & remember his daughter as well. Thank you for your honesty, this is very real for many. Hope you all have peace now. I especially love that your asking others to do an act of kindness❤

I'm so sorry for your loss, prayers to you and your family.

Keep up the courage. Your words can help others. Peace to Seth and his family.

This brought me to tears. God Bless you all for your honesty about this horrific epidemic.

The honesty in your obituary brought me to tears. I did not know Seth but he sounds like an amazing young man. Your message to others is important, never stop talking about it.

What a beautiful tribute to your precious son! I am so sorry for your loss and applaud your openness in sharing Seth's story. Prayers that this will reach and help others struggling with addiction, and prayers for all of Seth's family and friends.

Having seen your dear son's obituary in the paper, I want to thank and commend you for sharing his struggles. My 36-year-old son is an addict and has been for probably half his life. He has now been clean since mid-December 2015; however, I realize that addiction is a disease that can't be cured, only allayed and that it truly is a daily battle for the addict. Until we share our stories with others, the tragedy of addiction will never be faced and treated as the illness that it is. My heart goes out to you and all your family. I hope you can begin to heal, knowing that your cherished child no longer has any battles to fight and is finally at peace.

I'm so very sorry for your loss of Michael. I live in Niagara Falls, New York and wanted you to know that your beautiful tribute to him is being shared on Facebook and many prayers are being sent your way. This terrible disease is killing many in our area as well and I believe your courageous call to stop the shame & stigma of addiction along with increased education is the only hope there is to eradicate this tragic epidemic! Thank you for unselfishly sharing your story, it may have saved other lives. God Bless your family and may Michael finally RIP.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your strong and beautifully articulated words about your strong and caring Seth were shared with me today. I cry with you. I wish you strength, love, courage and eventually peace in the days to come.

I am so sorry for your loss and can only imagine the heartache that your family must feel.

My prayers are with you and yours.Thanks for sharing your story.To many of our youth are leaving to soon. I have had to see family members cross these bars.Hopefuly your story will help someone else know we love them no matter what addicition is a life long battle that has control before we ever know.
