It is so very hard to find the right things to say at such a terrible loss. Meagan every time we saw her always seemed to have a special energy, especially with children. The first time Jack met Meagan at a family reunion, he could not stop talking about her after we left for the day. Her spirit was genuine and we cannot express enough our love and sympathy to all of you at her sudden loss.
Mark and Joanne my heart is breaking knowing that you are living every parents' worst nightmare!! Please know my prayers and thoughts are with you and your entire family during this very difficult time.

We were lucky to be able to get to know Meagan as our kids attended the Y childcare. Meagan was such a bright light with her smiles and friendly nature. She made leaving our kids easier as we knew they would have a fun day. It always put a smile on our faces when we’d pick up and see Meagan with the music on dancing away with the kids. Meagan touched the lives of our children. She will be greatly missed. Sending you love and strength.

Meagan “Byers” was outgoing, loving, energetic, athletic and truly a wonderful soul. She was always looking out for those around her and so incredibly proud to be an Aunt, and to be working as an ECE. I was so fortunate to have gotten to know her over the years. My heart goes out to all the Byers family for this tragic loss. Thinking of you all and sending you all our love and support.

I’m still so shocked by the loss of an amazing teammate and even more amazing friend. Meag touched the hearts of so many. She was always so positive, kind, uplifting, and funny.
