brother richard (dick) morlan, a former co & do for many years, now lives in gadsden alabama, usa.
he is 77 years old.
i saw him at a recent assembly in dekalb county alabama and ask him about the prospects of him dying in this "system of things".. his reply was, "i am going to make it till armageddon, but if i should die before then, then the governing body is going to have to add another overlapping generation to another overlapping generations"!.

Morlan is borderline on the genius/crazy stage when it comes to his humor. You have to listen to his every word, and sometimes you have to pause and say to yourself... what did he say? One time to told us a a Pioneer Meeting, he told us his best job was working on a Garbage Truck because he was able to "bring home good furniture, bicycles, etc.
I believe he was serious about adding another generation to the teaching. Almost like he would be pissed about it if they did.

Yes, was in Gadsden that Ray Franz was DF in. In a earlier post I mentioned that for years I had worked closely with 2 members of the Judicial Committee, (Dibble & French), on the Circuit and District, RBC level.
Richard Morlan is attending the same congregation(East), that all the parties attended. In fact, the house he is living in is a Cousin of Gregerson.
The CO/DO in the 80's that had moved to Gadsden to live and direct the JC was Willie Anderson. Willie, passed away about 15 years ago, his wife is still but, moved to Atlanta to be with their daughter 3 years ago. And boy did she have some stories to tell about the whole thing.

Everyone that they have known for all these years has nothing to do with them. All their many, many years of Faithful Service means nothing to the Rank and File.
No friends to assist them, barely getting by, an old car that keeps breaking down. The Golden Years, have been horrible for them.
I wish I was able to help, but I can't at this time.

He told me recently a Brother whom he was Best Friends with before they went inactive, was working their Apartment building and came to their door. When he opened the door, the Brother just looked at him for a few seconds and said "Oh, I didn't know you lived here, I will see you at the meeting and walked away, no greetings, just turned his back and walked away."
That Brother and him were friends for some 40 years.
