Help Us Find Morgan Harrington

As you have probably heard, Dr. Dan Harrington’s daughter Morgan is missing. A student at Virginia Tech, Morgan was last seen on Saturday night, Oct. 17, at John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville. We are doing everything we can to support Dr. Harrington and his family during this crisis.
 
New “missing” flyers were released today, in English and Spanish, and we encourage you to post them anywhere possible.

Please share this information with everyone you can and remember the new tip line 434-352-3467 is still seeking any and all leads.

A Message from the Harrington’s

Dr. Harrington and his wife Gil have asked that the following message be shared with everyone possible in order to express the hope and love they wish Morgan to experience. The Harringtons have a special message of love they communicate with one another verbally, in notes, and even in signing (perhaps if you have traveled with Dan, you have noticed that this symbol is even on his luggage!). It goes like this:

. .  (I love you too much)
. . . .  (forever)
.  (and once more)

The Harrington’s believe that if we all think this through, pray/meditate and share it with others, that Morgan will experience the love, comfort and peace that comes from our efforts.

Thanks so much for keeping the Harrington’s in your thoughts and in your hearts – they are grateful.
