About Team Morgan

 

"Team Morgan", made up of Ottawa Professional Firefighters have committed to complete the Sears Great Canadian Run. We also organize and participate in additional fundraising events leading up to the Run. All proceeds raised go towards children’s cancer research at CHEO in memory of Morgan Wall.

 

Morgan was the daughter of Geoff Wall, a fellow Ottawa Firefighter, and Tania Wall. Morgan was diagnosed with a very rare and aggressive form of cancer, Rhabdomyosarcoma at the age of six, which attacked her spine and left her paralyzed. She endured numerous rounds of chemotherapy and radiation treatments over her next year and a half. Even at such a young age and with a very aggressive treatment she met each day with a smile. Regrettably she succumbed to her disease on October 18, 2010. Morgan was a vibrant, courageous and brave little girl whose short life impacted many people, including all her “uncles & aunts” on the Ottawa Fire Service.
