The morse family
I was pleased to find out that the Morse family is paying most
of their employees while on furlough. It is easy to complain about the Morse family being rich and selfish but they worked very hard for their wealth. They continue to keep out "Hometown" functioning and beautiful. Perhaps all the doubters should register for the Residents and Citizens Academies to realize what it take to keep this place running. Personally I have always been a fan of the Morse family and appreciate the lifestyle they offer us. Go visit some of the developments surrounding The Villages and you will can see the difference. I know of no other community that offers so much. Hats off to the Morse Family. |

In reality, the Morse family (aka "the Developer") has less to do with the daily functioning of The Villages than you think. The amenities (executive golf courses, the rec centers, common grounds, etc.) are maintained by the CDDs. The roads are maintained by the county. What the Developer does control and maintain are the commercial shopping areas, the Championship Golf courses, and the amenities in the new areas that have not yet been turned over to the CDDs.

They are a visible target, and they don’t talk back (without their lawyers). Hope they understand that people are frightened and frustrated at this time.

No correction is required. Those are just committees over the CDDs.

I don't understand your comment. Of course they know that people are frightened and frustrated BUT what would you have them do? I would think they're just like you and I having the same feelings about all of this situation that no one has control over. This virus has no "friends" and is spreading.

I couldn't agree with the OP more!!!!
For those people who do not like the Morse family and claim they are unbelievably wealthy, I say, "where were you when this was all watermelon and cattle farms and H.Gary Morse went to the banks to build this paradise. It's called free enterprise! My hats off to them for their vision of what is the model for retirement. Hindsight is always 20/20. It's much easier to see the finished product than to visualize what TV was prior to it's being built. People should ask themselves, "why didn't I have the vision and the nerve to borrow large sums of money, to build this paradise". I will be forever grateful to Harold Schwartz, Gary Morse, and his children for this paradise. Hats off to the Morse family!!!

I’m so thankful for The Villages and the wonderful family who built it. I hope it stays “mostly wonderful” for at least the rest of my life.

What would I like the Morse family to do? Be safe and content. I was clumsily trying apologistics.

People can't wrap there head around the fact that planners and doers are looking ahead 5 to 10 years or more... Contingencies are planned for, economic slow down etc. They do not operate on fear. Just the reality. Some fail, but some don't. Most just keep their head up
and press on. |
