Megan Clarke Obituary

CLARKE, MEGAN ELIZABETH Born December 1, 1985 in Riverside, California died Friday evening on June 25th in a car accident. Megan graduated on June 8, 2004 from Poly High School. She was looking forward to a future career in cosmetology and make-up fashion. In her short time she was with us, she was a loving, thoughtful and giving daughter, sister and a loyal and reliable friend. Each day for Megan was packed full of enthusiasm and anticipation, and she lived life to the fullest. Her infectious smile warmed everyone's heart. She loved taking pictures of her friends and family so that every event and gathering was captured on film. In Megan's recent senior project, she wrote these words, "Megan Clarke will always be remembered by her friendly personality. She is always sharing good memories and good times." This has been confirmed to be true with the outpouring of love that has been shown from all that knew Megan. For the past two and a half years she worked as a hostess at Ruby's Diner at the Galleria at Tyler, where she enjoyed her co-workers and regular customers. Her loving parents, Win and Beth Clarke, and her cherished sister, Laura Clarke, survive Megan. Also remembered by her grandma and granddad, aunts, uncles and cousins. She also adored the two family yellow Labradors, Alli and Molly. Arrangements are being handled by Acheson & Graham Mortuary. A "Celebration of her Life" will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, July 2nd at the Grove Community Church at 5320 Victoria Avenue, Riverside. A memorial scholarship fund has been established in her honor. Contributions may be sent to Riverside County's Credit Union at 6403 Riverside Avenue, Riverside, CA 92506 (account # 2234164). The family would love to know your memories of Megan. Please write them down and bring them to the church and they will be given to the family.

Megan was a good friend of mine that will be greatly missed. She was an a amazing girl who had the ability to light up a room whenever she smiled. I was lucky to have her as a friend and will always remember the good times we had with our close friends.My thoughts and prayers are with her family and everyone who was blessed to have her as apart of their lives. We love you Megan!

I never knew this wonderfull girl that all of you knew and love. I read about her in the newspaper, and I just wanted to send out my prayers to her family, and friends. I know its hard, I lost my best friend in January of this year....22 year old single mother, her too, in a auto accident....in pinion hills. Its a tradgity to loose a loved one, and at such a young age, makes it so much worse. I know that God has a plan, for all these things that seem so sensless. I know eventually most of you will mend your broken hearts with the knowledge that she is in such a better place, and the Lord is taking much better care of her there, than he could here! The memories of the accident, will soon be replaced with all of the wonderfull memories of the years you were able to spend with her....the funny things she said, the things she did....her beauty, and her personality. Know that eventually, you will join her, and once again, be together. Keeping in mind all of these things, will help get you threw such a hard time. The bible tells us that at the instant you take your last breath on earth, you take your first breath in heaven. What a wonderfull place to be. God Bless all of you!

My heart aches for you, family and friends, who are feeling the loss of Megan. But I have faith that she will be "Smiling" down on you all each and every day of your lives. Lets be thankful for the time we did have her in our lives and forever hold in our hearts the wonderful memories she has left us with. Your lives may never be the same without her but it will go on and we can only pray that one day we will see her again in Heaven.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Clarke family. When Laura and Megan were very young I would baby-sit them once in awhile. From what I remember Laura was a quite little girl and Megan was the funny one and full of fire. I am really sorry for your loss; Megan grew up to be a wonderful person. Children are a blessing. Always keep her in your hearts, she will be with you always.

I was one of Megan's good friends. She was the best person I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She's truly one and a million and she will be missed by a tremendous amount of people.

I didn't know Megan but my son, Joe did. He came home Saturday and had found out that Megan had passed away on Friday night. He knew her from his Earth Science class, she was the Teacher's Aide. He said that she was always smiling and she was really funny. I wanted to send out my prayers to Megan's family for their terrible loss.

Megan and I met through our good friend Ashley. She and Ashley had been best friends since they were five growing up together they continued their friendship. We also coincidentally both knew my very good friend RaeAnna, so we ran into eachother quite a bit. She was the funniest thing somtimes, I remember her face just a couple of weeks ago when my friends and I went to Ruby's for lunch. She was training a new girl and her face was just full of excitement(haha). We laughed and told her we needed to hang out, celebrate her graduating. We never got the chance to but it is alright the last we saw her she was smiling (like always). The funniest way to remember Megan would be the Deviled Eggs. Man! that chick loved her eggs. Carrie would make them for Ashley's yearly christmas parties and birthdays, you would have to make sure you got your share or you would never get a chance to even try one after she found them. That will always make me laugh. Megan will always be remembered, she is a wonderful gift to everyones lives, and I am sure she will continue to bless each and everyone of us with her presence.
