I met Megan when we both did liquor tastings when she worked for Remi Martin. We became friends unexpectedly. I will always cherish memories we shared. From seeing Cole Swindell, Windy City smoke out and hanging out on boats on Lake Michigan. Megan never met a stranger. She was a very kind soul. My deepest condolences to her family. She will be greatly missed.

We have been best friends since middle school and this is so hard knowing I will never be able to see you or talk to you ever again. You were the strongest happiest most beautiful person inside and out. I will forever be thankful for the many years I got to have you as a friend. Love you so much Meggie Boo.

Megan was one of the kindest souls I´ve ever known, and my life is profoundly better for having been her friend. Her presence felt like a warm embrace. Her positivity, strength, and sense of humor lit up every room she entered.
Over these last years, I have been deeply moved by the love and devotion her fiancé, Vagelis, showed her. The way he stood by her side, caring for her so tenderly and so tirelessly through every stage of her illness, was a remarkable act of courage and love. Their bond was beautiful to witness and a powerful example of what it means to truly show up for someone you love.
My deepest condolences to Megan´s parents, her siblings, and to Vagelis. May the memory of her kindness, her laughter, and the extraordinary love they shared be a source of comfort and strength in the days ahead.

Thank you for reaching out to me and connecting during a challenging time - during covid, we had both moved to Greece and felt isolated. You became such a wonderful friend and were so beautiful, happy and healthy at my wedding this past summer. I truly regret not having spent more time together. Your kindness, bravery and positivity will always be remembered. Thank you for being my friend Megan. I´m so sorry.

Todd & Karla, Jared, Katherine and Kailyn and Vagelis,
I am so sorry to hear of Megan's passing. I have to admit this was a shock. I knew she wasn't doing well, but I believed in my heart that this latest treatment was going to work and she was going to continue to live her adventurous life.
I can't even imagine what you all are going through right now. But, I do know your entire family is being surrounded in prayers, love and hugs.
Megan fly high and enjoy all the adventures on the other side! We will miss your smile, laugh and love, but are so thankful for having known you
Love and hugs, Sue & Jeff Woodring

Megan you are such a beautiful
soul and the world is a little dimmer without your light. We connected in serendipitous ways, once through a friend & again in a kundalini yoga class and stayed connected after your move to Greece. It was shortly after this photo in Santorini that you pushed me to host my first wellness retreat in Greece. You pushed me out of my comfort zone and showed me my potential. You will be dearly missed by Victor and I til we meet again. We will donate to your favorite charity.
