Few people in life are unknowingly able to design their own destiny. Jen Morgan is one of those few who followed a dream and was blessed with the capability of perseverance, leadership, and a tireless desire to help those who can't help themselves. Jen has that rare quality of being able to put others ahead of herself. She has worked in the field of search and rescue as a K-9 handler with diligence in finding those who are lost or missing and assisting families left behind in finding closure.

In 2005, an Australian Shepherd named "Vision"was donated to Jen and was subsequently trained to become a vigilant human remains detection dog with numerous recoveries over a few short years.Vision's specialty was working off of boats, recovering drowning victims. The love between her and her handler was distinctive and uncommon.It was a unique bond between a human and a canine, which allowed both to excel in finding lost persons.

In 2010, Jen was diagnosed with breast cancer.Vision's unconditional love gave Jen the hope and inspiration to recover. Later, while doing a search for a 5 year old missing child, Vision was diagnosed with cancer and subsequently passed away. Some believe that Vision took Jen's cancer so that she could live and continue their search for lost persons, which she still does to this day. Jen Morgan is a rare person who touches the lives of so many.
