The loss of a child is likely the hardest thing that anyone could go through in life, and it’s something that Craig Morgan, sadly, knows about. His son, Jerry Greer, died in a boating accident on July 10, 2016, and his 21st birthday would have been on Jan. 24.
Morgan posted a tribute on Facebook, noting a Bible verse: “Woe is me for my hurt! my wound is grievous: but I said, Truly this is a grief, and I must bear it.”
He also added, “Everyday is tough but some Are tougher. It’s your birthday. We will remain strong in our faith and pray God is glorified. I will see you again son.”
Morgan also used the occasion of his son’s birthday to announce a special project: A new TV series, Morgan Family Strong, that will follow the journey of his familyywife Karen, daughter Alexandra, and sons Kyle and Wyatt—as they cope with the pain of losing Jerry as well as launch their family’s passion project, Morgan Farms, a farmer’s market located in Dickson, Tenn.
Jerry lost his life in an accident that took place while he was tubing behind a boat on Kentucky Lake, in the next county over from his family’s home in Tennessee. The 19-year-old disappeared into the water and never resurfaced. His body was recovered the next day, and his cause of death was ruled an accidental drowning.
