Meghan's Story...
A 2017 graduate of Lower Dauphin High School in Hummelstown, Pa., Meghan Marie Johnson loved to sing, write music, and share her passion for the stage. She was very active in her high school drama club and theater program, as well as several community theatres. Sadly, Meghan passed away on Tuesday, Nov. 21, 2017 after a long and courageous battle with Stage 4 Glioblastoma Brain Cancer at the age of 18, just 5 days shy of her 19th birthday.
Meghan loved shopping, buying shoes, Taylor Swift, eating Peeps, the color pink, Arnold Palmer Iced Tea, watching The Golden Girls, and spending time with her little sister Rachael and her many friends.
The grey in her logo is for the color of brain cancer, the pink is because it was Meghan's favorite color!
