Lemley was so faithful in trying to make sure Aunt Virginia was taken care of. Despite his health issues, he visited her every day in the nursing home with the exception of a few days during the icy weather and then with Covid. He told us how they met and in hearing all of that, it is so apparent how much they loved each other.

Mr. Morgan was one of my favorite clients. I cared for him for about two and a half years. He cared about everyone he knew and was such a good hearted person. I loved hearing the stories about the war he fought in and learned something knew each time. I also enjoyed all the stories of him growing up and all the places he’s been. I know he is in a better place and not in pain. He will be very missed. I am sending prayers to his wonderful family and my heart felt wishes that they will heal and peace will help them heal.

I’m thankful to have spent this last 6 weeks with you listening to the stories of your life as a child, a son, a father, your time in the military, hearing the love and care you have for Virginia. I was amazed at your faith in God and your knowledge of scripture and where in the Bible scripture could be found. As your memory lost it’s sharpness and it got harder and harder to know what was going on your children were there to help you keep out of pain, hold your hands as you took your last breath. You will live on in my heart and memories. Give mom a hug from her children today because it is her birthday. I will see you two again someday in heaven. Love you Dad
