Obituary of Morgan Docterman

View Video Tribute Morgan Blake Docterman passed from this plane on June 3rd, 2008 at Memorial Hospital, Colorado Springs, Colorado after a serious illness. Morgan was born in the same hospital on June 7th, 1990. As magnificent as his entry to this world was, it was barely noticed by any other than close friends and family because his birth was preceded by the Limon, Colorado tornado. Morgan entered our lives on the tail winds of nature’s magnificent fury and beauty. He swept through our days, daring us to speak our truth, enjoy life and dream big. An accomplished actor, comedian and guitar picker, Morgan rarely read music or learned his lines for a play. He learned to play songs by ear and improvisation was his favorite way to act. Morgan’s trademark quality was the ability to fly by the seat of his pants yet somehow manage to soar with the eagles. In the words of his friends, “Morgan gave you the space to be yourself, express your emotions and put yourself out there.â€? Morgan will be greatly missed and leaves behind his mother and father, Tim and Tamrah Ortiz, and brother Nathan, of Woodland Park, Colorado; Grandmother Rose Mary Docterman of Simla, Colorado; Grandparents Sam and Gayl Ortiz of Denver, Colorado; Uncle Devon Docterman of Cheyenne, Wyoming; Aunt & Uncle Samantha & Steve Schriver of Evans, Colorado; numerous great-aunts and uncles, cousins and a host of friends.
