Morgan, David
David fell into the arms of his Lord and was freed from the struggle of a cancer battle, on Monday, October 19, 2020 at the Village of University Gates, Waterloo. With his family at his side, God granted him a merciful rest from pain and suffering at the age of 83.
Beloved husband of Margaret (nee Neill), Loving Father to Gareth Morgan and Derrien (Brad) Kish and honorary Daughter Carole (Rob) Robotham. Cherished Poppa of Michael, Emma, Thomas, Samuel, James, Maxwell and Sophie Morgan; Evan and Megan Kish and honorary Grandsons William and Daniel Robotham. Loving Brother of Joan (John) Gordon and Brother-in-law of Joan (John) Mather. Uncle to Kathy, Doug and Daphne and David and Barbara.
David never shied away from hard work. His passion for knowledge and learning led him to many positions and leadership roles in the field of Architecture. He was a Member of the Ontario Society of Architects, Principal at Dunlop Architects and Stantec, and a Fellow with the Canadian Design Build Institute. This same passion for hard work was applied to many volunteer roles over his life. His servant-hearted attitude enabled him to fulfill many positions within the Anglican Church, as well as the greater community. David served as the Chair of the Anglican Refugee Committee for the Huron Diocese, as both a Member and a past President of the Thornbury-Clarksburg Rotary Club, a part of the Committee for Adjustments and Excises for the Town of the Blue Mountains, and a member of the Board of many organizations and clubs. David will be remembered as an encourager, a creative and dynamic leader, and a servant-hearted friend.
As per David’s wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be a small family gathering at a later date. There will also be a Celebration of Life service that will take place in Thornbury at some point in the spring or summer of 2021.
As expressions of sympathy, donations to the St George’s (Town of the Blue Mountains) Memorial Garden Trust, are appreciated.
A special “Thank-you” to the staff and residents of University Gates, Waterloo. David was lovingly cared for after he and Margaret moved to Waterloo in August of this year. The staff of University Gates went above and beyond to care for and give David dignity and compassion in the final stages of his cancer battle. Also Thank you to David’s amazing E-Shift member Shanti, who guided us through the last moments of David’s life.
