Sending our condolences to the Morgan Family. Love and Prayers Always From The Reed Family (Saratoga Comgregation)
Beth and send our deepest condolences to Jeff,Jeanette and the Morgan family. We were very sorry to hear about the loss of our friend Ron who like Jeff was family. I enjoyed great times serving with him at headquarters. Driving back and forth with him to the wonderful Brownsville Congregation.And serving on the same body of elders. Not only did he love Bid whist he also loved dancing so much he created his own moves. My brothers and I would look forward to the gatherings at our parents home and other events just so could see Ron's dancing. It was awesome having him in our weeding party. His love, mildness kindness and being a fine example of a spiritual man will truly be missed by Beth and I and all who knew him! We look forward to Ron "rising and coming to life real soon." Is. 26:19 Much love Joel&Beth Lopez
While in USA from missionary field, our friends surprised us with having Ron Morgan at a Bid Whist party in Atlanta. AWESOME EVENING! Please see the two photos of Ron and his smashing Bid Whist hand while at the table next to us. No "moratorium on Bostons" here, as long a his partner, who actually had 4 diamonds including the JACK, got out of his way. Partner, a somewhat less seasoned player hesitated in getting out of Ron's way, prompting Ron to stutter: "Don't... don't... don't...don't you mess me up!" Partner was intimidated and nervously had to get up. Though very calm, Ron insisted that partner sit back down and finish the hand. A Boston was ran and we all had a great time. CLASSIC MOGAN MEMORY!! Look forward to playing together again. D&P Turner
My deepest condolences to the Morgan family on the loss. Our prayers are with the family and may Jehovah provide relief to all during your time of grief. I have known Ron since I was a teenager in Riverdale congregation. Ron was a brother you never had to doubt loved Jehovah. When we would played Bible games he was the brother that knew the most unique names in the Bible. Ron was always reliable when you needed him. Always was on the dance floor and gave the funniest food illustrations for his talks. In all the years I knew Ron, I never saw him upset. Always had a smile on his face and was always laid back. One of the coolest brothers you will meet. You will be missed my brother. We look forward to seeing you dance and laugh again in the new system . - Stanley Castan

We are deeply saddened by the loss of our dear spiritual brother and friend. He was a joy to be around ! We played cards and basketball together. He also did something that I will always treasure. My wife and I live in Paraguay , South America and one day he just called me up to see how we were doing. For him to take time out and make the effort to reach out to us in a foreign country will always be something we treasure. We appreciate his example of being a spiritual and happy brother!! I will never forget his laugh and the way he looked when he had a good hand in Bid Whist. We look forward to the day when he wakes up in paradise!! May Jehovah God please give the comfort that you need as a family in these difficult times. (Isaiah 57:15)

To the memory of our fellow soldier Ron Morgan
Stealthy he move among us all. Hitting his target with precision. And humbly blending in as he continued going forward with purpose. Now as he rest from a job well done, we the living press on with a sterling modern day example of what love of god and neighbor can cause one to do. Ron Morgan life has not been in vain. For the moment we are saddened, but thankfully it's only for awhile. May his life help us with Jehovah on our side, endure to the end. With heartfelt tears for family and all who Ron's life touched. May Jehovah keep all your tears and you in his sight.

We want to send our sympathy to the Morgan family. I worked with Ron in the Factory Pressroom and for a short time in Factory Electric in Brooklyn Bethel. We both live on the top floor of 107 and Ron would come over my room once a week to play cards. We had so much fun. Last year during Covid-19 Ron would log-in into my congregation weekend meeting when we had speakers he knew. Ron will be missed. He was always positive, humble and easy to be around.
May Jehovah the bring comfort to the Morgan family.

Dear beloved Ron, we will cherish our fond memories of you. You were not much with words, but when you got to know him and talk with him, he had a great a sense of humor. He was one who took the initiative to step in, help others, lend a hand, and get things done. Ron was an excellent role model, to my brothers, and they looked up to him and his brother. He really helped my brothers as an exemplary example of being a young chaste Christian brother, and inspired my brother, to Bethel service. Sleep well brother, Ron, and be at peace, until we see you again.

We want to extend our deepest sympathies to the family of Ron. We served with him in Brooklyn Bethel, he always had a smile on his face and a pleasant disposition. May Jehovah comfort your broken hearts as we await his promise of a resurrection. Warm christian love, Michael & MaryAnn Aronowitz
For me, Ron Morgan was more than instrumental in my personal spiritual development: He studied with me to the point of baptism! Ron has been a strong part of our spiritual family that my family viewed & treated him like a blood relative. The experiences and pleasures we had with Ron was numerous. Ron was a very appreciative and thankful person. Even when we didn't have a lot his love for us was still there and it was unconditional. He was genuine and very respectful. He left my brothers & I some excellent examples to follow as we were growing up. Seeing him & Jeff on weekly basis growing up in Brooklyn, proved to be a benefit in our lives. By his actions he showed us how to serve Jehovah joyfully. He showed us the value honest hard work, while seeing the good from it at the same time. He never took himself too seriously and that helped to lighten up and smile more often. For me, one awesome highlight was when he saw me serving in Bethel while he himself was there too! His joy and being proud to that situation couldn't be hidden! If you ever had the experience of working with Ron, then you fully know what it means to really Have a Nice Day while putting in a honest day of work!!
We love Ron!! He'll never be forgotten.

Ron was a loyal and faithful servant of Jehovah and is now resting in his memory. My most outstanding memory was when Ron and I were partners in Jeff and Jeanette's wedding. We were supposed to walk in doing a two step and he broke into a James Brown routine đŸ˜‚đŸ˜‚đŸ˜‚ he loved to dance.
Losing a loved one is incredibly painful, and very personal.
