TIFFANY MOGENSON Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 13, 2013.
Tiffany Leigh (Long) Mogenson, age 30, Prairie Village, KS passed away October 11, 2013. Memorial services will be 4:30 pm Tuesday, October 15 by the lake in Mt. Moriah Cemetery South, 10507 Holmes Rd, Kansas City, MO. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to a dance scholarship fund. Details to follow. Tiffany was born July 24, 1983 and lived a wonderful life surrounded by family and friends who loved her. Dancing was the most important part of her life, and she never knew a time without it, continuing to dance as a Golden Girl at the University of Missouri -- where she graduated Summa Cum Laude, a Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleader and a director of the Missouri Mavericks' Spirit Squad. In 2008, she was able to fulfill a lifetime dream of sharing her love of dance with others, opening The Pointe Dance Studio in Blue Springs, MO. Throughout her life and her work at the dance studio, she touched countless lives and inspired many young people. Tiffany will be forever missed by her entire family, including the love of her life, husband Michael Mogenson, stepson Maddox Mogenson, mother Terri Platania, father Randy Long, sister Stacey Chaloux, niece and nephew Emerson and Benton Chaloux, and a large extended family, including the families of her dancers. Those who knew Tiffany could see that she believed in helping others always and lived by her family's code: Strength, Honor, Love. Mt Moriah & Freeman Funeral Home. 10507 Holmes Rd., Kansas City, MO 64131. (816) 942-2004 www.mtmoriah-freeman.com

Leslie A. Suess To all those whom don't know me, I am an instructor and associate of midtown Overland Park. Tiffany was, for lack of any better words, and believe me there are far better...an encouraging and kind hearted gal, that filled our lives with music, dance, and all the wonderful things that make any passionate teacher strong. She is, what we bleed tried and true, the epitome of a passionate leader, with a smile so infectious, only us all that knew her on this world could possibly see. I think I speak on behalf of both the associates and members here at midtown when I say, we truly for any and every reason in Gods ever changing world, may and will never be able to wrap our hearts around how such a horrible thing could happen to someone so good. She was just so good....take into your hearts the notion that Tiffany in life, was the best of the best, and that although she did certainly not deserve an untimely end, that she and everything she gave us will shout above loud and clear as her from the kingdom of heaven for eons to come,... because as she knew too well, our best teacher is our own heart. May god above take my friend and place her in his kingdom as a teacher, where she belongs amongst the greatest, most passionate and enthusiastic givers he has ever known to enter his kingdom. Our father, who art in heaven hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and Forgive us our trespasses, as we may forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,. For thy is the power and glory of God forever and forever.... amen

My kids Taylor Wood and Olivia Warren attended dance at Miss Tiffany's dance studio in 2010-2011. Miss Tiffany was the most lovable person we have ever met. So generous and happy. I am sick and saddened by the news. She had every thing going for her. What a wonderful life she led. She touched so many with her beautiful smile and always kind words. I could go on forever trying to describe what I think of Tiffany. Forever loved and missed.
