A memorial service is being held today for the New City technology teacher in the Bronx, and her two young sons, students at Felix Festa Middle School and Laurel Plains Elementary, who were allegedly killed at the hands of her husband. Clarkstown Police have said that Bronxville Police Sergeant, 49 year-old Watson Morgan failed to show up for his 11:30 shift the night of Friday, December 29th. Clarkstown police went to his home and found the 49 year-old Morgan appeared to have fatally shot his family, including his wife, 43 year-old Ornela Morgan, his sons, 12 year-old Gabriel and 10 year-old Liam, and then turned the gun on himself. Rockland County Executive Ed Day says it may never be known why this tragedy happened…
The service is being held this afternoon from 4 to 7pm at St. Francis of Assisi Church on Parrott Road in West Nyack. A funeral service will be held tomorrow in Worcester, Massachusetts, with burial to follow. In lieu of flowers, the family has asked for any donations to be made to Rockland’s Meals on Wheels, the 9/11 Foundation or St. Mary’s Albanian Church in Worcester.
