We received a phone call this week from a couple requesting an account closure because their son Jeff, aka Morpheus, had been in a serious motorcycle accident earlier this month and has been in a coma since then. His parents were attending to his banking business when they called. After I heard about this I wrote back to his parents asking for permission to share this news with his online friends so they could send their prayers and thoughts.
His dad sent me the following:
"Doug - thanks for your kind words. I know how much Jeff enjoyed Aces High. He's getting a little better each day, but for now he is still in a coma. He is under a great deal of sedation and is being given a lot of pain medication, so that is partly responsible for his condition. He is opening one eye and seems to respond to some of our questions, but it's tough to be sure. I don't see any reason not to share this with any friends he has online. He can surely use all the prayers he can get. Thanks again. Bob"
I don't have any other information at this time other than the accident took place on April 10th. Although I don't know Jeff personally, I know he's been around the game a long time and has a lot of friends in the community. I'll pass along any further information I receive.
