I am so sorry to find out about Morganne. She was a beautiful woman all around.

Morganne was a shining light for me. Not only

were you beautiful on the outside, you had a heart and brilliance that enamored everyone around you. I’ll always treasure how much we laughed… how much candy we ate!! How could this talk, tiny woman eat so much candy???

I miss our facetimes and calls… I yearn to read the book you were working on…I’ll think of you everyday and all the sunshine you brought into the lives you touched.. God bless you my dear friend… I love you!

I read with tears, yet such joy, the wonderful memories and stories shared.The Beach House was indeed an incredible home and community in which Morganne and Jesse spent with Dale and Duna. And on so many occasions for many years, many of us here were lucky enough to share it with them. We were always welcomed with open arms, and more often there were crazy games - hide and seek and lobster races come to mind. To this day, I can't say who enjoyed these more, us or the kids. Morganne and Jesse, always joining in until a more interesting adventure lured them away. Then popping up like happy, chatty squirrels, sharing treasures discovered.

I will see, forever, Morganne parked in front of me on the deck, eyes locked onto mine, listening or smiling about something shared. In those moments, the world was just the two of us.

Life carries on, we move, careers change, time and distance happen. There are the special Beach memories, but there were more to follow, and I am blessed to have been part of Morganne's Time. Day by day, we will let go of her loss, but we will never let go of our love.

Sincere condolences for this tragic loss. I swam alongside Morgan as an Aquabelle. She was a bright light and a kind person.

Your family and Connor are in my thoughts. Sending love to you all during this very difficult time.

Reflecting on the cherished memories of my dear childhood friendship with Morganne feels like grasping at fleeting moments of joy, how do you encapsulate them in mere words? How do you articulate the depth of laughter, the adventures embarked upon, and the childhood fun we shared?

I wrote these words as I processed our loss. These are the moments, A Tapestry of Childhood Memories, woven into our friendship, a testament to the joy and camaraderie that we, two young girls, shared.

A Tapestry of Childhood Memories- Corrie Larson

Freckle-faced and sunburned, as childhood friends we'd roam,

In summers painted gold, our laughter found a home.

Beach sand in our toes and shores so blue,

We'd chase our dreams, me and you.

In her room, we choreographed with grace,

Dances to dazzle, in her big bedroom space.

To Madonna's Holiday, our steps did align,

Performing for parents, our talents, we thought, divine.

Remember the swing set, pumping our legs so high,

our laughter soared, reaching the sky.

The backyard fort, a haven in the wild,

Echoes of our joy, the summer breeze so mild

Dancing at the Yacht Club, where the wooden floors creaked

Being spun by our Dads, and all rosy-cheeked.

Nova Scotian lobsters flown in by Gail,

Back-deck races were won with screams and wails.

Tag in the backyard, laughter in the air,

Morganne's authentic joy, beyond compare.

Snuggled in blankets, under starlit skies,

We were 'secret agents', and being spies.

Life's currents swept us far and wide,

Down paths diverged, yet close in stride.

But despite the distance and the years,

Our childhood bond remained as peers.

We shared the journey of motherhood's embrace,

Our paths converging in a different space.

She spoke of Connor endlessly, her pride so clear,

Her love for him, boundless and sincere.

And now, in the hush of waves, I hear her laughter,

Authentic, loud, infectious, ever after.

In every grain, her spirit gleams,

Her laughter, the sound of our childhood dreams.

Morganne was the most special person I’ve ever met in my life,she changed my life for the better and she will always hold a special place in my heart. Not a single day goes by that I don’t think about her or miss her.

Duna, Dale and family, I am so sorry to hear this very sad news and offer my deepest condolences on the passing of your beautiful daughter Morganne. Her time with us was too short, but I’m sure her impact was immeasurable. During this time of grief, may you find solace in the love and memories you all shared with her. Her spirit lives on in the lives she touched.

Oh Duna and Dale I am so sorry to hear of this terrible loss of your beautiful daughter. I can not imagine the pain you are currently facing. Sending you such big hugs and hoping that you can find some glimmers of support, love and positive memories through all the challenges. Please look after yourselves and each other.

OMG Duna we are so, so sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter!! I can’t imagine in my wildest dreams what you must be going through!!! Sending love to you, Dale and Jesse and all the rest of your family and friends that loved her!!! Sending hugs and love to all of you! xxxooo
