Mike, though all the time has passed, and the tears have long dried, sure there’s a gap that remains, deep down, until that Day. Grieving with you, brother, and looking ahead with you for that soon Day. Like Dennis Kinlaw has been known to say, “We are in God’s hands. And they’re good hands! God bless you, brother!

in Jesus,

Robert

And every year at this time, I hear Megan’s voice, very loudly, singing “I may nevah . . . . .”

I can remember glimpses of Megan at the College church whenever we’d come to hear your wonderful lessons. I wish I had known her.

I don’t think I will ever forget that day. The date on the calendar is foggy at times, but I remember clearly details of that day… It still doesn’t seem real! I had never before or since experienced such shock and immense grief at something I thought I knew was coming. I guess my head knew but heart didn’t.

Your little girl was amazing in so “not of this world” kind of ways. Knowing her, and you all as you lived with her, blessed me. Thank you for sharing her then and now.

Hope you guys have a blessed Thanksgiving!

When I think of Megan I always remember the energetic little girl who bounced around the pews after worship services at College Church. Our first child was born in Wilmington, NC on November 14, 1994 and she was being passed around at Pine Vally (probably by some of the same people who passed baby Megan around) for the first time when we learned that Megan had died. I took my precious newborn into Jimmy’s office and cradled her closely as I wept for you and Diana and Matt. She touched so many lives and I thank you for continuing to share her with us.

I just took the whole chunk of cheese and left my teeth marks in it - in memorium. You know, it’s not a bad way to eat cheese.

I remember reading this on your blog. I also remember this was right about the time that I visited Highland and decided church wasn’t all that bad if people who hurt a lot could preach there.

Hope you guys are doing well Mike… Peace and Blessings to you and the Cope Family.

The memory of this date makes my heart ache and cry. One of my great regrets is that I didn’t have a chance to know Megan….well, in person at least. But yes, I do know her from the way you talk about her. My hugs and prayers for all the extended Cope family!

My love to you, Mike and Diane-and to Matt and Jenna and Chris. And of course to your wonderful mom and dad and to all Megan’s family. You remain in my heart, as does sweet Megan.
