To Meghan's family-
I just found out today about Meghan's untimely death.
I have been trying to get in touch with her to tell her how much the little dresses she made for the orphans in Swaziland meant to the children who received them. I just got photos yesterday and wanted to share them with Meghan. When my email bounced back I investigated and learned of the accident and your loss. I loved Meghan. She was in my ECG 200 class last spring and planned to switch her major to education. I have a wonderful slide show she made about the little dresses project, a fabulous essay she wrote, and an email she sent me early in June. I will send those things to you if you would like to have them. Know that Meghan was one of the most loving, brightest, wonderful shining lights to step into my classroom at Cabrini College. Know also that the dresses she made brought sunshine and hope to little girls faraway in Africa. Her spirit lives on. I will miss her terribly.

Meghan taught my daughter, also Meghan, at the Y pre-school, much to my daughter's joy. My daugters and I are deeply saddened. Please accept our condolences. Meghan was and is beloved.

Meghan was such an amazing person and great friend. Everyone who knew her knows how truly genuine she really was. Her sudden and terrible death was a complete shock that broke the hearts of many people. She was one of my best friends who I knew for over 14 years. I'm so sorry this happened to you Meg. I will always and forever love you.

Meghan was working hard to succeed as a student. I admired her effort and am so sad that she is no longer with us.

I am so sorry for your loss. Meghan was so special to our daughter Anya at UMLY Preschool. Meghan knew somehow when I was having a bad day and she would text me pictures of my little girl on the playground. Anya just asked a couple days ago if Miss Meghan could babysit ... I am so sorry for your loss. She could not have been a nicer person and we will miss her terribly.

I had the pleasure of meeting Meghan only a week ago. She had incredible energy and I trust her energy will remain around all those that love her. "You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body."

Sunshine came into our home, and our lives, each and every time Meghan walked in our door. That smile....always there...shining SO brightly, regardless of any burden she shouldered. Love you Meghan...You have made me realize how blessed I am...And I look forward to when we cross paths again...which I am certain we will. Until then....fly butterfly

I met your daughter only once but felt such a deep sadness when I learned of her passing and I just had to reach out to you. my baby cousin lost her son just a few years ago in a car accident in Pa. David was only 18 when she had to stop life support. Its so hard to understand why this happened..... God never promised a life without pain, laughter without tears or sun without rain...But God did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way. And for all those who believed in Heaven above, he rewards their faith with everlasting love.
Many heartfelt prayers from our family to yours in this difficult time and I am very sorry for your loss.
