Megan’s House was named after a young woman (pictured right) who lost her battle with addiction at age 26.
Her father, Tim, started the Megan House Foundation in her name.
“Megan is an angel today. She is not in pain. She has no regrets. She is a beautiful girl who in her short life struggled with addiction, with pain, with sadness. She had a child’s heart and understanding of the world. She could make you smile and loved to laugh. She could also make you cry and feel helpless. Because of her struggles she learned to appreciate a small kindness. When someone was nice to her or touched her in some way, she would tell me that people were good. When they didn’t she would say they didn’t understand her, but didn’t know why.”
