Homage To An Angel

I am good at remembering what people do, less good at remembering how we met and I am currently racking my grief-ridden brain as to how I met the magnificent Megan Johnson-Zucaro who I was saddened and shocked to learn passed away on Sunday.
As with so many other people, we met virtually during the pandemic and I taught her how to become a networking GODDESS on WhatsApp which is why she was in 104 of my industry-specific WhatsApp groups.
Removing her from them has been painful on several accounts.??
Witnessing this TikTok video of her recording a heartfelt Father’s Day message speaks volumes about Megan and the kind of person she was.? Stoic to the end, it is obvious that she was in a great deal of pain, but she carried on regardless. Typical Megan.
Watching her battle a preventable staph infection she was unaware she had is beyond painful.
A small-town girl from Minnesota, she moved to Texas to train as a journalist who became an ABC News Anchor and was crowned Mrs. Texas.
She then moved to Beverly Hills and got involved in real estate and, by her own admission, made some mistakes.? And the fact that she shared this openly made me love her even more.? Authenticity is thin on the ground in Beverly Hills, and Megan was authentic to the core.
Then two years ago, virtual became reality when she came to the UK for the first time and I became her chaperone:? I suspect not that many Americans have visited London, Birmingham, Walsall, Bristol and Clacton in a Tesla!??

The excitement she displayed being on top of a London double-decker bus revealed her inner girl, and her positive energy and joie de vivre was infectious.? Not only did she live life to the full, she squeezed it just that one bit harder.
Megan understood that virtual business networking was not about her.? It was about them.
This is why she excelled at it, and I am forever indebted to Megan for having introduced me to Ashkan Tabibnia?? who was kind enough to bestow me with his Enterprise’s Legacy Service Awards which I hereby bequeath to her for having introduced me to him.
To celebrate Megan’s life, I will be organising an online party.? Music was one of Megan’s greatest loves, and I know some of the awesome tracks she loved to prove it.
Like laughter, music is the great equalizer.? And Megan laughed.? A LOT!
Megan was an utterly selfless individual whose beauty - both inside and out - will never be forgotten and my heart aches for Randy and the four adult children she leaves behind.?

4 个月I remembered connecting with her over WhatsApp, where she shared some details about her brand and explored how my social media agency could assist. I am very saddened to hear the news. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. Unfortunately, there are some things in life, like death, that we cannot control. I pray that her soul rests in peace.
