  1. CandleImageMy father was a strong, loving and wise man. He never judged anyone and he always wanted to get to know someone for who they really were. He could look in someone’s eyes and see right through them. My father was able to change people for the better with just his presence. When he spoke, he spoke truth and wisdom. My father loved hard and was always thankful for what God has already blessed him with. With my father constantly expressing gratitude towards others and having a good heart, he innately fueled others to become better. My son and I will love and miss you so much, papa and dad. You were one beautiful soul that many people will honor and miss.

  2. Lain was so personable. I believe he could talk to anybody. Me and my husband had the opportunity to meet Lain at the Department of Treasury. He was a man of integrity and a pleasure to be around. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family and friends. May the peace of God rest on everyone concerned in Jesus’ name.

  15. CandleImageJulie and I were deeply saddened by the tragic news of Mr Morgan’s passing. Please accept our heartfelt condolences. We remember fondly his great sense of humor when we met him at Coraine & Aroon’s wedding ceremony in September 2019. He was one of those rare beings that one liked instantly. He will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace and may God give you and the family strength and the fortitude to bear this tragic loss.
