After "retiring," Dr. Morgan devoted his energies to writing and other adult ministry. He traveled across the country with his wife, Alice Ann, leading seminars on Aging and Spiritual Autobiography. He was a chaplain in a 120 bed nursing facility, a volunteer chaplain at retirement communities and nursing homes, and supplied pulpits until age 86. He cared deeply about persons with dementia and their caregivers, and was a co-founder of Clergy Against Alzheimers.
He loved sports and sports writing, walking, writing poetry, local history, and classical music. His favorite teams were the Philadelphia Phillies, UNC Tar Heels, and his beloved Davidson College Wildcats.
He is survived by his two brothers, Dr. Howard Campbell Morgan of Chicago, IL, and Dr. John C. Morgan of Temple, PA; and four adult children, Rick W. Morgan (Cindy) of High Point, NC, Randy W. Morgan (Deborah) of Yorba Linda, CA, stepson Harding Erwin (Paige) of Houston, TX, and stepdaughter Anna Sever (David) of North Huntingdon, PA. Morgan treasured his ten grandchildren, Dan, Chris, Kaitlyn, Thomas, Savannah, Emma, Patrick, Ben, Brannon, and ReidAnn, and his two great grandsons, Grayson and Noah. In addition to his parents, Dr. Morgan was preceded in death by his first wife, Marian Stahl Morgan; his second wife, Alice Ann Klostermeyer Erwin Morgan; and two sisters, Patricia McMillan and Mary Ann Morgan.
Morgan was always concerned for the outsiders and marginalized of society. In keeping with Richard's loving and generous spirit, it was Richard's decision to donate life so that others may live.
A Memorial Service at the chapel of Redstone Highlands, Greensburg, will be held at a later date, with Dr. John C. Morgan and chaplain Drew Decrease officiating. A graveside service will be held for the family at St. Clare Cemetery, Greensburg. In lieu of flowers, memorials should be given to the Benevolent Care Fund, Redstone Highlands, 126 Matthews St., Greensburg, PA, 15601.
