My beautiful, compassionate, shining star, it has been 15+ years since you left this earth. I´ve never been the same. In some ways, I´m a better person, in other ways, my light has dimmed. It´s been a long road without your counsel. As much as people say I can talk to you and you will hear me, I´m afraid it isn´t the same as having you here. Connor is growing up nicely. He is a very sensitive person and a bit shy. You would be so proud (you probably are proud in fact!). He is loving, empathetic, giving and so very, very smart. He is amazing and the reason I am still here and not with you. I do often wonder if he would be any different if you were here blazing the trail for him. Hard to know for sure. I do know that the two of you would have been as close as ever. I miss you, Meggie. I miss hearing "Hi family!" when you walk into the house. I miss your hugs. I miss your smile and your laugh. I miss everything that is you. Everything.

A day doesn't go by that I don't pass your photo and miss you so.I think about all those times we would compete to see who wore the most lime green. Too playing gin rummy for hours. Or just hanging out with me and Dyllan.To know the beautiful young lady that you became is the most wonderful thing. You touched so many hearts and still do. I know the good you must be doing up there watching down on all of us. Till we see eachother again know I will always love ya bunches

Dear Megan,
I think about you everyday and something throughout the day always reminds me of you..from someone wearing crazy clothing, a peace sign, skipping instead of walking or someone calling me monizz.

I rememeber we played that ridiculous game at your house and after we played we couldnt get one thing out of our head and it was

" I took a wrong turn on albuquerque"
haha that was hilarious.. even after we ran into eachother we would say it haha

I miss you so much and I know that everyone does, my brothers miss you a ton too.

we talk about you a lot and how you were always there just to make our day.
megan, you are such an amazing person and im so happy that your parents have made you in to the beatiful woman that you were & always will be. I am glad that i got to be one of your million friends = )

i miss you girlie!

take care.

I know I dont need to say anything in here because you already know. I love you and miss you everyday. I dedicate the happiest things in life for you. I spent yesterday not as a year that has gone by since ive seen you, but a year thats closer to the day i get to see you. Thats the great part of being a christian, I know I will see you again. Me, Bennett and Bentley have establish two new traditions to our family just for you, it helps bring a smile on our face and Im sure you saw them and smiled too. The sadest part about this for us is, our son will never get to meet you and get to call you Auntie Meggie or Cousin Meggie or whatever, he'll never get to meet you and thats the biggest disappointment for me, because you should still be here. We love you and can't wait to see you again. Were Familia and will always be together, even in death you remain the closest person to my heart, your picture brings a smile to my face and I love when people share stories with me about you, they make me feel that much closer to the person you were on earth. I love you.

Megan, its sad writing this, because it brings back memories, but people have been changed by your story. You have changed peoples lives, people that did not even know you are in awe of all the wonderful things you did. I know that you are in a better place now.

Dearest Lucy, Steve, Connor and family,
Miss Rhonda here. I'm thinking of you today (as I have done for the past 365 days, and will continue to do forever) and hoping that today you may find comfort in the words written and spoken of your darling Megan. We all miss her so much, and although a year has passed, the pain is still difficult to deal with. I'm hoping that just as last year was spent with all the "firsts", I'm praying that in this next year, you will find yourselves stronger as you continue the difficult journey of moving forward. I smile everyday I'm at my desk, and look over at the wall and see Megan's handprint...someone circled it with a big red pen :)

Also, thanks to "one of her many friends;) for maintaining Megan's guest book for another year.

All my love,
Miss Rhonda
(p.s. Lucy, maybe we can finally do lunch)

Meggie, I still can't believe it's been a year. It still feels like yesterday playing in the little plastic houses at daycare, and sliding down that huge old metal slide. You with your crazy outfits, which have always stuck with you, and your stretchy headbands that i'm pretty sure you didn't go a day without wearing. You are the one person who never fails to put a smile on someones face, or bring someone up from being so down. I could always count on walking into starbucks after either a long night or bad day, and sitting outside when not even 5 minutes later you'd bounce out and talk to me making sure I left happier than I came in. From our daycare days to highschool years, and all that's inbetween, you will never be forgotten. There's not a day that goes by I don't think about you and miss you. I love you more than you will know Megan Emily Rountree. You made a difference in so many peoples lives and I know you can look down and feel so accomplished. <33

To Megan's family, and friends, it's hard to imagine, a whole year has,not flew,but dragged by for the dear close ones, to Megan. But I am sure many good things has happened to blossom. Making new friends.Learning more about ourself and what we really have down deep, inside of us, what keeps us going? Like the Greatest man ever to walk on the earth said"Your faith has saved you:go your way in peace."Luke7:37-50 May you continue to receive all the love and encouragment to keep on going. Sincerlly, Ginger Scallorn

What a difficult year this has been for everyone who loves Megan. I find some comfort in seeing that her life made a difference in so many other lives. She was such a lovely example for young girls because of her charitable spirit and her genuine compassion for others. I am so proud that my daughter tries to live remembering "What Would Megan Do" and tries to follow Megan's example of love towards all. God Bless all Megan's family as they approach this painful milestone. I hope that they all find comfort in knowing how much Megan was loved by so many and that she touched the hearts of so many others. (Especially you Lucy. Please know we love you Steve and Connor so much and you are in our prayers daily. I am so grateful for our friendship.)

It has been about a year since your passing..I will always remember that big beautiful smile.I wanted to write in here one last time before this book is no longer available,I would love to keep it going forever but times are tough now and I simply can't afford it.I also wanted to say that I am sorry for not attending your funeral..It wasn't long before you left that my daughters friend passed ..I went to his funeral and seeing them bury a 21 year old was more then I could bear...Let alone an 18 year old..I know my reason sounds selfish but really,it is the only one I have...You were too young to leave..But God has his reasons..Maybe to protect you from what is going on in this world today..There is a reason for everything.I miss you Megan...I will see you again..Until then,Sleep well.

Megan,
We didn't know eachother well in highschool. But i will always remember hearing you name yelled across campus, i always thought to myself who is calling me? But they were always talking to you, and i remember turning to see you respond with the biggest smiles, you'd throw up your hands, giggle and say, "That's me." I called you "super star megan", I always wished it was me, i was so jealous of how much everyone loved you. We became friends after high school, and i felt trully honored to be friends with this Super star from highschool, and i will never forget your last time in Humbolst with us. I was so happy you came up to visit for your 18th birthday. Earthday had never been so fun. Your cake was amazing, we had such an awesome time and took soo many great pictures. You were "MMMMM", and me, "Johnson" so that there was no confusion between the Meg[h]ans. You visted me more then any other friend. And i enjoyed you visits more then any other friends. I couldnt wait until i came back home to EG to see you again. We always had fun, you could always think of something to do that would entertain the group. My grandmother passed away so i came home and i knew you and cailtin could make me feel better, but you passed away the same day as her. It was so hard for me to bare. I never got to say good bye to you, i love you girl. I miss you. Megan i think about you every time someone calls my name, everytime someone is happy to see me, i am reminded of your effervescence, your beauty inside and out. i am not even half the person you were, but i try to be, and i carry you in my heart always. Thank you for everything you have taught me, thank you for being so wonderful and optomistic. You and your memory are a blessing to everyone.

April 12, 2008

I saw something in the news today about Megapalooza and Chicks in Crisis purchasing a house in Elk Grove for Meg's Place. I can't tell you how much it helped to know your work will continue on and that your memory will not fade. I miss you.

To Magan's Dear Family and Friends, and acquatintance's. I am so sorry to see such a loss,for such a young lady, I have never seen a young women before with this many friends, I am taken back by it! A full bouquet, of wonderful friends.Much praise to her parents, it show's she was taught how to give of herself, she must of felt the affect that comes with giving,where there is more happyness in giving than receiving.Megan so reminds me of what the Greatest man who ever lived on the earth,He said those very words about giving, what a fine example!It makes me remember how Jesus delt with the death of a very close friend, Lazarus, He was very very close to his family he even stayed with them,it says Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazuras. Lazarus feel very sick,and than died before,Jesus could make it back. He told His disciples they were to go and wake him up.They did not understand, Jesus explained Lazuras was in a sleeping state, not in heaven or hell, but conscience, of nothing at all.John11:11.Ecclesiastes9:5,6 As you can see from that account, the family was soo happy when Jesus brought there dear brother back the joy that was soo overwhelming,as He demonstrated that love for mankind and resurected many while on earth. I hope you have been touched by the best example of reuniting loved ones again.May Gods word give you all the strength, it will take to get through this hard time. My heart goes out to your family, I too have two daughters, 19 and 20, Oh how my heart aches for you, you will be in my prayers. sincerely Ginger

Dear Lucy,
You may not remember me, but I remember when you worked at the Capital, and I worked for a lobbying group. I also lost my daughter 6-years ago when she was almost 17, and I was shocked to hear of your tragic loss of your precious daughter. I understand your pain and grief, and from one mother to another I send you and your family my heartfelt prayers and condolences.

I know how surreal this experience is, and I'm not sure that ever goes away, but as the article mentioned about Megan and how she was there to help others, I wanted to make the same gesture.

My niece (Lindsey Toppila) and my cousins son (Alex C.) knew your daughter and said how full of life she was, and if you were feeling down, Megan could immediately lift your spirits! I wanted you to know that Megan made a difference to them and nothing can ever take that away. Her memory is eternal, and even though she was here just a short time, there are people that live 60+ years and never accomplish what Megan did in only 18 years. The article said she liked helping others less fortunate, what a beautiful testiment of a life well served. Megan had and will always have purpose to all that she touched.

I wanted to share a saying that continues to comfort me, in hopes of doing the same for you and your family; "To live in hearts we leave behind is to never die".

Sincerely,

Wally Borland

To Megan's family,
I am deeply sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of meeting Megan this fall in a class at SCC and she was such a wonderful person. She was so kind and just always happy. Even though I was only acquainted with her for a short while, it took only a moment to see how completely genuine she was. Again I'm deeply sorry for your loss, I will never forget her or her signature laugh and smile. She is in my prayers as you all are.

Now that I can some what see thru the tears, Let me say a little more. Meg was my partner in crime at Hansens. You never saw the two of us apart for very long. Even though there were a few yrs between us we were still the best of friends. From our Lime green everything to her teaching me gin rummy. Meg was that friend I needed in a lonely time in my life. I love her so dearly and always will. Words can not express the joy I felt to she waht beautiful lady she had become inside and out. We all knew she would become someone so special and she did, to everyone of us. Lucy, Steve Conner and Jay know that every thing you told me I was to her she was to me three fold. I love all you and wish the very best. I know Meg's Place will be the most wongerful place ever. Please keep me updated.

To Megan's Family and Friends~

I only had the chance to know Megan for a very short time. My husband and I first met her at Starbucks and she quickly became one of our favorite baristas. She was always smiling and happy. Megan always greeted us with that adorable, bouncy, cheerful greeting only she could give.

When I lost my son in a tragic motorcycle accident earlier this year, she offered such genuine, heartfelt condolences. It amazed me that such a sweet, young woman would be so compassionate. Each time we saw her, she would brighten our day.

Please know that Megan's legacy will live on. Her deeds and thoughtful, selfless acts of kindness are an example to all of us. She is the flame that will kindle the fire in all of us to DO something for others.

Please know that I TRULY know the grief you are feeling. I know there is nothing that I can say to make the pain of your loss go away, but I can offer my deepest sympathy to all of you who were truly close to her. It is a blessing that Megan will never be forgotten.

If there is anything I can do, or if my husband or I may help in ANY way, please feel free to contact me.

You are in our thoughts and prayers.

~~~~Sweet Megan, You left us far too soon and left so many people in tears. You have touched so many people in so many different ways. You always made me laugh and your kindness was ever so sincere. As I promised; my baby-girl will be named “Megan-Grace” which you insisted several times that it was the perfect suggestion. Your innocence, compassion and humor had captured an eternal soft spot in my soul. I will always remember you. XoXo, Juanita Kessel & Family~~~~

I didn't know Megan too well, but Connor was in my pre-k class at Hansens. I actually met Connor when he was only 2 and I remember that Megan had taught him how to spell his name by singing the letters. Megan was always such a great help when she came back to Hansens to help out the teachers. She was beautiful, sweet, and caring. The world has lost a truly special person. Steve, Lucy, and Connor...my thoughts are with you.

To Megan's friends & family:
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort. There are only a handful of people who come into your world and touch your life. To me Megan was one of those people. Some of the people you meet are just flickers of light during a long life, while others are consistent glows for years. For me, Megan will always be in my heart and a consistent glow. Megan, I love you. I miss you. You have graced my life over the couple of years I have known you. I enjoyed taking you and Justin to the River Walk in San Antonio from Kileen. God Bless you and your family.

Megan. I didn't know you for long but you left a big impression in my heart. I don't think I had ever met a young girl quite like you. You always had the biggest brightest smile and a super twinkle in your eyes and I think that we can all be assured that you are going to be the brightest star in the sky with the twinkle that everyone will see. You were sweet and friendly and I always enjoyed talking to you. You would have done wonderful things here on Earth but God must have bigger and better plans for you . I will miss you Megan...

Jay and Lucy,
Although I was not as fortunate as you all to know Megan in her most recent years, I did however get to know her when she was a child. Jay and I were roomates and lived on Pocket rd. together for 3 years. Durring that time I got to know Megan. She was as sharp as a tack. I believe she was in the 2nd,3rd and 4th grade. I was always impressed with her intelligence and knew she was destined for greatness and because of this tragic accident we will never know how great she would have been. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her and her family durring this very difficult time. Joe Raquel and Terra.

Dear Megan and Megan's beautiful family,
I am blessed to watch Megan shine while she helped our friends without homes.Megan and I would give food and clothes to our friends at 8 or 9pm in the freezing cold on the streets of Sacramento... because we both have the same compassion to help others : )
Megan's first love was to help bring food and clothes and blankets to our friends that live in tents, or sleep on the sidewalks... and with the abundance of clothes and blankets, Megan would deliver these donations to the Union Gospal Mission, the VOA and to the Salvation Army. Megan has a heart of gold. Our friends would say "When is that starbucks girl going to visit us again"? Megan you have your treasures in heaven... You are truly a blessing to your family, your friends, and our friends on the streets... I love you and I miss you! Sue

Wow I'm not sure really what all i can say about someone that was as awesome of a person as you Megan. I can't believe we both went to Franklin High School and I never had the chance to meet you till you moved downtown! And I remember how we would know the most random people at there was someone we knew almost everytime we'd see eachother lol good times...I'm never going to forget the excitement of when we would both first see eachother and you giving me the hugest hug from the smallest girl lol you were an amazing person and all I can say is that I know you're in a better place right now and you know I'm not the most religious guy you know but you truly make me believe in angels. RIP Megan and you're smile is going to always be missed. <3

My dear friend Lucy,

I love you and want you to know, that I am at your disposal, now, tomorrow and forever. I have struggled all week, with what more I can say to you. So, here it is. We have been friends for many years. Meg, Mary and Jeff were so little when we first met. We've shared many "Mom" stories over the years. We have watched our kids grow and experience life, and have loved each of them every step of the way. Thank you for being the wonderful Mother you are. Through our friendship, I became a better Mother. Likewise, by following your example, Megan became a wonderful woman. She was your "Mini-Me!" Lucy, you are a bright, intelligent woman, who inspired your daughter to greatness. You model generosity and enthusiasm for life, and in return, Megan became a caring, generous and enthusiastic woman. Megan leaves so many who will now walk in her footsteps, as she walked in yours. With the strength you have from within, and the support of your loving family and friends, you will continue to be the amazing woman and Mother for Connor. With a heavy-heart, I am sorry for your loss. My love to You. Your friend, Miss Rhonda

To Megan's friends and family:
I did not know her personally, but I know her spirit. I recognize it in my teenage daughter and her friends. Megan's energy will always be with you. You may have lost her in body, but she will always be with you in spirit.

Hello Megan. I'm so sorry.

Our condolences go to the family for the loss of their beloved Megan. I will always remember Megan’s beautiful smile, infectious laugh, playfulness,
kindness and thoughtfulness. She will be greatly missed but not forgotten by her loved ones and friends. She left us so young but yet accomplished much more in her short life than many adults have in their lifetime. She is resting in peace and smiling upon us. She is in a far better place. Even though some things just don’t make sense to us, we have to believe that God had a better plan for her. God needed an angel. May God bless Megan’s family in this time of need and loss and may God provide the entire family with the strength and love to carry on through this loss.
Lucy, my family and I will never forget Megan. she made a lasting impression in our hearts.

I must say that I see many students throughout the school year and it is hard to remember all of them. But, YOU, you were unique in many ways. Your personality and sweet smile brightened my classroom. You will be missed. ¡Qué en paz descanses!

Megan...I love it when you call me big poppa:) Playing softball with you was great. Remeber we used to sing and dance during practice(probably why we hardly won ) lol but we made ourselfs winners! We had our own championships that weren't real to others but couldn't get any more realistic to us, that is simply what made us aone of a kind team.YOUR STILL MY RIGHTY AND I WILL FOREVER BE YOUR LEFTY.You are trully a championship winner to me. You won my heart meg, there hasn't been a day that has passed by that i have not thought of you , your laugh, smile and friendship. I miss you more than ever, and im sorry we never met up for that lunch/dinner date we had planned. Im sorry i want you to know that , and I love you more than you may have thought. I can count on one finger (lol) how many arguments we had and I believe we both came to the conclution that it ws stupid. You made me a better person you showed me a differnt way of life. You are an angel and i will forever remember you and your productive achievements. You still make me smile meg everytime I think of your beautiful smile! Megan made a difference, not only to me, or herself but to everyone she knew..."I love you in the morning and in the afternoon, I LOVE YOU" You were the best there was a point when the only people we trusted were eachother and our families, although we grew apart after high school i still trusted you and i still do. I have one more guardian angel, I know your in heaven meg. Thank you for everything you did wheather it was helping me with my homework, watching my favorite movie together way more than one time, or if it was simply hearing you laugh a couple feet away and making my day. I love you and you will NEVER be forgotten

You have been in my thoughts Lucy, Steve and family. As Rhonda and I looked through the pictures of Megan growing up at Hansen's, it just brought back so many memories of her. Picking her up from elementary school and all the talking we'd do on the ride back. I remember how happy she was to become a big sister. She was always such a sweetheart, always displaying her beautiful smile and just a special girl who loved to help all of the teachers. She grew up into a beautiful young woman who I and all those who knew her will miss so much. I am so grateful Lucy tht you chose Hansen's so that I was able to be touched by Megan's life. I love her and she will hold a special place in my heart.

Megan...I and everyone else who worked with your mom over the years heard all about the wonderfully bright and caring child you were and the amazing young adult you became. Your mom's face beamed whenever she said your name. God must have had a great need for a very special angel in calling you home so soon. You and your mom will be in my thoughts and prayers many moments of every day; you will not be forgotten by anyone...that I know. much love to you and your family always. shere, barry and braden mann

Megan,
I remember the first time that we met we joked about us being best friends and, two hours later we were still playing along. I'll never forget seeing you walk into Jeremy's Halloween party dressed as Audrey Hepburn. You looked amazing that night. You'll truly be missed by anyone and everyone that ever met you.

I didn't know you that well but we went to school and whenever I saw you you always had a smile on your face. I can't believe that you are gone. You have inspired me to make the most of life and to always give to those less fortunate. I find comfort knowing you are now at peace.

Megan, I still remember in Mr.Stems english class, and he was talking about how us teens ask our parents for everything, and he was like raise your hand if you have a job, and you raised it, and then he asked raise your hand if you bought your own car, and you were the only one who raised it. I remember we started laughing because we all couldn't believe it. But it just goes to show how independent you were. You were the most beautiful person I knew. You always had something to talk about and it was never awkward. Even when alex and i would see you at starbucks you make time to just talk for a little bit. You were the most friendliest person I knew. Im going to miss your smile, and i wish that i would have been able to talk to you more. But God has truly been granted with an angel. May you rest in peace Megan. You will forever be missed.

Megan,
I still remember meeting you in the seventh grade and hangin out with you at one of the dances. And through high school you were still the same outgoing, happy person. You were never hard to talk to, and there were never any awkward silences. When me and Justine would see you at Starbucks you would always flash your big smile and ask how we were. You were so friendly and we will all miss that about you. Rest in heavenly peace.

Meggie:

Sarah and I met you way back at Hansen's during your preschool days. You were one of the brightest lights in our life and we quickly fell in love with you. Sarah remembers how you were always so helpful in school and what a great friend you were to her. Girl Scouts was great and we have many memories. You were always there, always happy, and as we have always remembered you over the years since we moved away,always had that big, beautiful smile on your face and in your eyes. We love you and our hearts are breaking for your family. From all that I read, you left an incredible mark on this world. Lucy, we love you and pray that you and your family can find peace and strength from the love that Megan brought into this world.
