We continue to think about your family and the funeral service for Meghan. What an honor that so many were able to be there and no telling how many others would have been there if they could. Meghan's life was short, but what a difference she made and will continue to make as her memory lives on. It has to be comforting to reflect on how many she helped - with her positive attitude and demeanor as well as tangible help!!
God bless you.
Our love,
Steve and Donna Campbell

I only knew Meghan a short time, but I grew to love her. She was so good with people. My 91 year old father thought she was the cat's meow. Her leaving us is especially hard because she was the one that consoled us. We miss her, but we know we will see her again. God just needed her more than we did, I guess. My prayers go out to her family and friends.
