Gail Anglin wrote a sympathy message

“My husband, Dave, joined Mort's team at NRC as a young astrophysicist. Dave valued Mort's guidance and the trust that Mort showed in letting his team pursue independent work. It was an honour and a pleasure for Dave to work with such an excellent experimental scientist. And Mort and Nancy were very kind in welcoming Dave and me when we arrived in Ottawa in 1976 with our one-month-old baby. We have very fond memories of this lovely couple.”
