Meg and I were Campfire girls and went to Camp Natoma together. I distinctly remember the night we had a sleepover and toilet papered as much of Highland Drive as we could. Meg knew how to have a good time! My deepest condolences to her family. The world has lost a bright shining light.

Getting together for girls night with a crazy, fun group of gals was always so much fun. She was a wonderful, thoughtful person, and I was honored to call her my friend. Meg will be dearly missed. Heaven has gained an angel.

Dear Meg, You were always so much fun and a blast to be around; you & your family will always hold a special place in my Heart - Heck, truth be told, Your Father & Brother inspired me with their "saves" to become a Fire Fighter. You´re in good hands, my dear friend. Rest In Love. God has prepared a place for you in Heaven. Godspeed
