\u00a0No, I do believe she is still with us in spirit, but I don&#8217;t believe she should have been taken from this world against her will, taken from our family the way she was. \u00a0There is no place in this world where that is okay&#8230;it&#8217;s just not okay. \u00a0No one has the right to take another life.<\/p>\n<p>The wrongs that were done to Morgan need to be righted. \u00a0There needs to be an investigation into her suspicious death, and indictments need to be made. \u00a0Turning a blind eye to the outrageous things that have happened to Morgan, before and after her death, will only insure that other families will continue to suffer as we have, and no sane person would ever want that. \u00a0This needs to end, and end now.<\/p>\n<p>To date we still continue to be attacked as we press forward for justice for Morgan. \u00a0Those people that have been spreading lies, hiding behind their computer screens, in their own dark corners thinking no one will ever find out the truth &#8211; they need to realize many people already know the truth &#8211; the truth has always been there. \u00a0For the person(s) that did this to Morgan, as well as all those who continue to try to keep Morgan&#8217;s case from ever becoming a case, by threatening and bullying everyone that have attempted to help get justice for Morgan, I would like them to know that hiding in the shadows isn&#8217;t going to work anymore. \u00a0Staying anonymous while spreading lies and mistruths may work for awhile, but not forever. \u00a0The bright light of truth is still growing ever brighter every day and will not stop.<\/p>\n<p>Remember this quote:<\/p>\n<p><i>\u201cWhen I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it&#8211;always.\u201d\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<div>\u2015 Mahatma Gandhi<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This picture was taken on one of our many trips from Colorado to California, and back again. \u00a0Driving through the desert in Utah was alway inspiring. \u00a0Looking at the rock formations was food for the imagination&#8230;imagining lost tribes of Indians, &hellip;
