On the wall of Morgan's office, in the background of the photo above, is a photocopied article that Morgan's predecessor and friend, Andrew Burrell, had left behind.
Andrew pointed out to me that it's translation is "HOWARD KISSES BUSH'S ARSE" or words to that effect.
A subtle hint at what he really felt or some sort of oversight when taking the picture!?!?

Somehow this shot says it all ... we love you Morgs and are going to miss you, big time.

Like Katya and VC I have many childhood memories of the times we spent together, I hold one particular memory of Morgan and I being sent to the nearby shops at Parriwi Junction to buy potatoes and running whilst creating a silly jingle about the task we had been given, an odd, ill-defined memory without context but strangely detailed in my mind.
I ran into Morgan at Hamilton Island race week a couple of years back, he looked the same as he does in all the photos posted on this site, casual, relaxed and completely at ease with the world.
A much loved and highly respected man whose life has been tragically cut short, may the winds be fair and the sea calm wherever it is you are sailing, I wish you safe passage Morgan.
My deepest sympathies to Dawn, Peter, Lucy and Caroline.
