“Molly Mo”

Molly Erin McBride was born February 13, 1997. With a beautiful spirit and a heart filled with grace, she brought joy to all who knew her. On October 5, 2023, she left us way too soon at the age of 26. 

Molly had a deep love for music, art, and whales. Her singing filled the air with her own symphony of joy. She loved painting and filled hundreds of canvases with her expressive brush strokes. Painting and singing allowed her to express herself and show the world the beauty inside her. Molly loved jokes, teasing people, and taking selfies. Her enthusiasm for life and her creative, loving spirit made a lasting impression on everyone she met. She was vibrant and full of a joy that you couldn’t deny. Molly's presence will be missed by so many. 

Molly’s memory will be forever cherished by her father, Rod McBride; her mother and stepfather, Stacie and Donald Gorham; her sister Emily McBride; and grandparents Calvin and Sharon McBride, Mary McBride, and Marie Dinsmore. She leaves behind many, many friends and loved ones. Welcoming her to heaven will be her Grandpa Elmer Dinsmore. 

 

A memorial service to celebrate Molly’s life will be held on October 13, 2023 at Johnson County Chapel, 11200 Metcalf, Overland Park, Ks. The visitation will start at 6:00 pm followed by the service at 7:00 pm. In memory of Molly, donations can be made to a charity of your choice.  May her soul rest in peace, and may her memory be a source of comfort and inspiration to all who knew her.
