Morgan was a bright light. She was an amazing you lady while I knew her. It was so special that I got to see her the week before as she was visiting PA. It was such a blessing to me, I couldn´t stop and talk to her as I was departing TKA with the van of students but we saw each other and waved frantically. I will miss her smiling happy personality. And that cannon of an arm in volleyball!!!! We used to always joke with her about that cannon! I pray for peace for your entire family.

I am so sorry for your loss. I didn´t know Morgan very well. I was a substitute teacher at LCA. I had her in a few of the classes I subbed. She was very kind and helpful.

I felt like Morgan and I were great friends in high school and had such good times when she was in PA. It was all due to Morgan´s wonderful compassion, love, joy, and spontaneous-ness that she brought into everyone´s lives. Even though she was 3 years younger than me; she was the one friendship I had in high school that I felt I never really had before that . I always knew that she was mature/older than her age, ( in a good way:) which made me think how amazing she would do in college, at Liberty. I think that´s why we bonded so well. We had our ups and downs ; as we both were still learning our way through `teen-hood.´ But yeah. She would always help out with younger kids. She had such a natural bond with them!!! She was also SO athletic!! All the extracurriculars, like volleyball,basketball. Even the musicals she participated in. It was so fun. She was an extraordinary person who loved the Lord: trying to find her way through high school just like me. I absolutely commend her for EVERY thing she did; and every aspect of a person she was. She was amazing; as I´m not really sure what else to say...except that God really worked throughout her life. She fought the good fight and finished the race. I will never forget her wonderful friendship to me and how God used her in my life.
