Morgan was a very young girl when we were at the Faire together, and the intervening years have made her a kind hearted and generous lady! She is an accomplished musician among her many talents, which I admire greatly. But what I most admire is her care and concern for her friends, old and new! Thank you, Morgan, for counting me among those fortunate enough to be your friends!

I have never met Morgan, but if fate is kind, perhaps one day I shall. I've heard wonderful things about her from old friends ... and I feel connected as our paths no doubt crossed at old faire.
May her voice and beauty continue forever.

Morgan is an inspiring member of the original ensemble that created the Rennaisance Pleasure Faires. She created amazing designs for the RPF Costumes Crew when it still created many of the costumes for the show, as well as helping to oversee the overall look of the costumes at a time when the show was a smash hit. Cali style would not be the same without her.
As a musician she was an ice-breaker, a spark stalker, and a great promoter of traditional music. We have spent so may grateful hours rapt in sweet tunes I can only hope for more.
Plus we were faire brats together and she throws great parties.

The last Dickens I did was Freezer Faire, and my last LHC event was NRPF '92.
I started in the early '70s as a Faire Brat in Agoura.

My husband has been feverishly learning the Adobe Dreamweaver program, and we now have a spiffy new website. Videos, music,literature,recipies,clothes,pictures, and more to come.
The last one was lame...this is better.
