I'm truly sorry for your loss. We went to school together and grew up in the same neighborhood. She was a great person and a funny one. She will be truly missed by many who loved and cared for her and just knew her.

I met Megan one summer at The Water's Edge while my family was on vacation. My sister, Megan and I became fast friends, and the Gadsby family adopted us for the rest of the summer. I lost touch with Megan, but I think back fondly to that summer often. My deepest condolences go to the Gadsby and the Hammel family.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Gadsby, Pat, & Cheri,

It was with a deep and saddened heart that I read Megan's obituary, in the Herald, today. I well remember your close and supportive family. It was my pleasure to have served as Pat and Cheri's middle school counselor and to have watched Megan mature into a successful student and fine young woman. I wish all of you much comfort, in each other's love; and I will keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers.

Warm regards,

Gail Schmidtchen

All is Well

Death is nothing at all. I have only slipped away into the next room. I am I, and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference in your tone, wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Pray, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was, let it be spoken without effect without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was; there is unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner.

All is well.

Henry Scott Holland
