Bereavement

In memoriam graphic

We recognize that any loss in our community impacts our entire community. Our thoughts and prayers are with those who have lost loved ones.

With family approval, the Office of Human Resources will be notifying the Morgan community via email of the passing of current employees and retirees. All familial losses of current employees will be memorialized on this bereavement page. Employees, retirees, and friends of MSU who have lost a loved one should complete this bereavement form and we'll post updates to the page.

Employees experiencing grief are encouraged to utilize our EAP program.
