Wherever Meagan lived, she lived her life to the fullest and her world is full of people who basked in the glow of her amazing loving approach to life. Meagan was a special light to all who knew her.

One of Meagan’s sisters described her this way – “Meagan lit up this dark world and she lightened the weight of the hardships we each carried. There was no other person who exemplified friendship, love, acceptance, forgiveness, kindness, or thoughtfulness like she did. She brought us all so much joy. She listened. She made us laugh and her own laughter was contagious. She celebrated even our smallest victories. She made us cry with her sentiments. She literally was always speaking in a high decibel. She never knew a stranger and for that reason brought all those around her happiness. She brought people together. She gave sincere compliments and remembered every date. She put effort into making people feel good and she put others first. She loved her family, her friends, and everyone loved her.”
