Oh, Minnie! I can not believe 10 years have passed since you slipped away while your girls were eating chicken curry, I think. We don't chat with Liz as much as we should. But we enjoy her pictures of the snow in New Hampshire. I know she thinks of you, a very special, wonderful mom who was there for al here kids. I am glad to think of you and Hank and so many others as being safe and warm and protected from the vagaries of this world. We love you, Minnie!

Dear Pat, Alana & Liz
In searching Minns ancestry I came across this beautiful memory book of Aunt Muriel. My apologies for not sending you a note, but glad to have found this site. Although I have only met Aunt Muriel and Uncle Bill maybe a few times, and recall meeting some of you Pat, Alana and Jimmy, I feel as though I have known all of you and Liz all of my life. With the many pictures and stories through Granny. I am so glad to have come across this site, and wish all of you many blessings. There are so many wonderful comments about your Mom and I do remember her smile and her inner strength and spoke with conviction just like a Minns. The miss is huge and never goes away, but the memories are everlasting and so good too to be able to laugh again when we speak of them. Our Richard was a comic and a character and our Dad never hesitated to speak his mind, had a heart of gold a very passionate person. We have so many loving memories of our loved ones and can be comforted in knowing so many are all together again. Also, we did have a little Minns reunion with the presence of Auntie Binki and her grand-daughter Susan's coming to Canada. Myself and husband Steve had them, Uncle Allan, Bonnie, Robin and her 2 boys, Ethan and Liam, my Mom and brother, John over on Sunday, September 6th, 2015. We had a real great day filled with fun, laughter and lots of stories and memories. So here's a part of the family in Canada wishing you many wonderful days ahead with all of your heartfelt memories and stories still to tell and remember.
With much Love to all of you, Auntie Muriel, Uncle Bill and Jimmy

Dear Lizz,
Please accept my apology for allowing many months to pass and being unable to find the appropiate words to write a truly memorable condolence in memory of "Your Dear Mom" ...
Although I've never had the honor of meeting your Mom, I feel as if I knew her, just as I'm certain many friends did from the cruise group.
Your "Dear Mom" was a lady Lizz. A lady that will be remembered of having class, dignity, grace and style. A lady that made YOU so very proud to call Mom.
You were a wonderful daughter to your Dear Mom Lizz and should feel very proud of the many memories you built with her. You and Bill first introduced her to the wonderful life of cruising in 2006 to Bermuda and built so many fond memories that you will always have to hold onto for a lifetime. Hold on to each and every special memory you shared with your Mom, you have much to feel proud about my friend. Please know in your heart that your dear Mom is finally out of pain and in the same place as your Dad and your beloved Bro Jim. Together they ARE in a better place ...
In Friendship & Deep Sympathy,
Sandy & Joe Daly ~

Lizz -
I am very sad to hear the news of your mom's passing. Both your mom and your dad played a significant role in making Warner Ranch feel like a real neighborhood to my sisters and I.
Your parents, (and your brother), were a part of my experience of Filaree Avenue as I was growing up and I miss them all. They were always very kind and considerate to us neighborhood kids.
In my heart and memories, Filaree will always be... Mehegan Street.
With friendship and love, Roy

Minnie Mehegan, You were always so kind to me and treated me with dignity and respect. You cared about me because Lizz cared about me and, moreover, because you saw me as a human being worthy of love. I will never forget your kindness or the sexy string bikinis you made for Lizz and me in the summer of 1975.
With love forever,

Liz, I have not only got to know you better in they last few months but I feel the I have know your mom for ever. How you always talked about her and took care of her. When I lost my mom in 1988 at the age of 30 that was a big lost for me and with out my family and my husband and friends I would have never got throw it. I did't know your mom but I know she did love you so always remember that, know body can take that from you. May the comfort of friends and family be your strength now and in the days ahead. Love you your friend, Kathleen (Proffitt) Salas

I am sitting here holding a box that contains two porcelain thimbles, pieces from Minnie's personal collection. One is decorated in gold leaf wildflowers evocative of Germany. The other bears the likeness of Poet Laureate William Wordsworth, with the words "The English Lakes" written on the back. I can clearly envision a rosy cheeked and smiling Minnie standing by the shore of Lake Windermere, with the sky a cloudy, misty gray. It is, by all accounts, a glorious British afternoon, a day resplendent with God and Nature. The wind is whipping her hair to one side and she's thinking about putting on her scarf. The hills are crying the Poet's song...his Ode on Immortality:
What through the radiance which was once so bright
Be now forever taken from my sight,
Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, or glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind
This verse is soothing to me now. I know the Poet's had a reason to sing. Your Mother graced God's earth.
Minnie was a delightful and endearing lady, a woman so worldly wise and full of adventurous tales. How I longed to read her autobiography! It was a gift to have known her, if only for a brief time.
Go rest, dear Minnie, you gentle soul. You will not be forgotten.

I was so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I can only imagine how much you will all miss her. I pray that you find peace in knowing she is at rest from her suffering.
She was certainly a beautiful example of love and compassion from all the wonderful stories I have heard from my Mom and the Mehegan cousins who were fortunate to know her.

Lizz - I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom my friend. If there is anything I can do for you....please don't hesitate to call. Just try to remember that your Mom is no longer in pain, and she has made it home to see your Dad. Sometimes that helps us
get through the tough times like this.
Lizz, I never had the honor of meeting your Mom, but from what I've heard from all that knew her, she was one of the best. I just wish I would have had the privilege of meeting her. Take care and God Bless you and your family.
RIP Mrs. Evelyn Mehegan

What a special person she was - so supportive of children and family. What a loss to us all. She braved so many hardships the last few years - the loss of her husband and son and then her own hardship. Minnie, your departure from us is our loss. Our relief if someone can take your place in heart and soul......go in peace.

A lady of class and warmth. An Aunt who always made you feel relaxed and welcome in her home. Who is going to make her sausage rolls or her mince meat tarts? She and Mom lit up the tennis courts and the dance floor in their younger years. We will miss her long phone conversations about everything and nothing.
Our Love,
