Ed Morgan stepped up to head Mother Marianne’s West Side Kitchen nearly four years ago. After four months on the job, he decided to ask some volunteers how they thought the operation was going.
“I guess it’s alright,” Cheryl Wakeel said. “You haven’t pissed me off yet.”
Another responded by saying, “Who are you?”

Ed recounted that exchange during a recognition dinner for volunteers and donors, held Sept. 26 at Club Monarch – where Ed announced that Cheryl was the Fr. Richard Dellos Volunteer of the Year. Cheryl is one of those volunteers he could really rely on, noted Ed, who is retiring for health reasons. When he needed something done, he would call her and “never got a no.”
Cheryl was a little more than surprised by the honor.
“I was absolutely shocked.”
