How your life can change in an instant. Life changed for me exactly one month ago, September 20, 2015
Shortly after her birth on November 7, 1979, Megan moved to a foster home in Denver. She lived in a foster home while social services searched for an adoptive home. She was a little over two years old when she was introduced to Deborah and I. It was love at first sight between Megan and her new adoptive to-be parents; we felt a true connection. We met several times; each meeting was longer, and included our taking Megan to the Denver Zoo. What a feeling we had, embracing potential, becoming parents, becoming a family!
We knew from that first day. Megan would be ours. The Miracle of Adoption was successful as we adopted her in early 1982. She was 2 ½ years old.
As Megan became a young lady, she had a great talent to write poetry and her desire to help anyone in need. She always had a great smile and that eager to help.
On September 20, 2015, the lord took her from us: her family; her friends; all those she loved; and those that loved her. As we reflect on her short amazing life, we will miss her smile and kindness.
Megan Elise – November 7, 1979 – September 20, 2015.
You will be missed and I will always love you,
Dad
