Father Morgan, a great spiritual leader

Dear Editor,

My wife and I on July 17 took a ride to Los Banos to a health care center where we had the honor and privilege to attend Monsignor Morgan 99th birthday. We have attended his birthdays for the last three years. Father Morgan served our Parish, Immaculate Conception, for 13 years. He had been around for a good 20 years in the area where he has made many friends. Great spiritual leader! When he couldn't take care of himself he went and settled in Los Banos on this great care center run by the Catholic Church where he is living very happy. At 99 I have never seen him so sharp with remarkable intelligence by remembering almost everyone he has been in touch with. In this event he had around 70 guests that he shared with singing and cracking jokes. Full with the Holy Spirit, strong voice, I have no doubts he will live well into his hundreds. He served his flock well with love. He is loved by anyone who got to know him. People of Hollister, I would tell you Monsignor Morgan is well taken care of.

He is a happy man. We have much to thank him for the years he guided us in following Christ. He has been a role model for humanity. We love you Thomas Morgan! You completed many records through your career that you deserve. I compare you with the great champions in the Olympics, each at their own place. I spent time this year watching the Olympics and I would like to give credit to everyone who participated. It's not without sacrifice that you are to complete your goals. Not only the gold medals, but anyone who participates. It is unbelievable what all these people are going through to make our country look so good and that goes to Monsignor Morgan for what he has done for all the people of his church and for all. God Bless you ad that the Holy Ghost continues at your side. You are a gold medal winner with what you have accomplished. Happy 99th Birthday!

Amadeu Lima, Hollister
