Robert Morgan

Robert “Bob” Morgan, 88, of Milford, beloved husband of Mary (Maura) Morgan, passed away peacefully at home on September 16, 2022 surrounded by his loving family. Born on April 20, 1934 in Belfast, Ireland, he was the son of the late John and Annie Morgan.

Bob came to this Country in 1958 and proudly served in the United States Army. Bob and his family moved from Bronx, NY to Milford, CT in 1975. He worked for The Hartford Insurance Group for 37 years before retiring. After retirement, Bob started his second career volunteering at various organizations; such as Milford Hospital, Beth El Soup Kitchen, American Red Cross, St. Agnes Men’s Club and The Thomas Merton Center. When Bob wasn’t busy volunteering, he enjoyed traveling with his wife of 58 years, golfing and spending time with his family; especially his grandchildren. Bob was very well known in his community and never met a stranger. He was referred to as “Mayor of Milford” by his friends. Bob was a proud resident of Milford and all that Milford offered.

Along with his wife, Bob is survived by his children, Robert M. Morgan, Kathleen (Terry) King, Patrice (Michael) Gorman, Deirdre (John) Virgalla, and Brendan Morgan (Sandra Testo); grandchildren, Brigid (Chester Burnett), Shannon, and Caitlin King, Michael (Caitlynn Murphy), Ryan, and Meghan Gorman, Brenna and Joseph Virgalla, and Keaton Testo; and numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. He was predeceased by his seven brothers and sisters.

The family would like to thank the many compassionate caregivers Bob had from Masonicare Hospice, Talem Home Care, The VA and his special caregivers, Agnes, Eileen, Brooke, and Michael.
