On June 20, 2024, at 8pm. We lost a very special someone and heaven gained a beautiful angel. Meagan Rachelle Desemar, on her way home that night, was a victim of a tragic head-on collision and as a result, lost her life. She was a loving sister, daughter and friend to the multitude of people she impacted throughout her short lifetime. Our lives will forever be changed with this horrific loss.
Meagan Rachelle Desemar, age 29, was born February 27, 1995, in Baton Rouge, LA where she lived until age 20 when she moved to Mississippi. Meagan loved animals and had a dream of becoming a vet. She proudly owned several horses and donkeys that were deeply loved and cared for along with several dogs including the two she raised from pups, Peanut and Sadie. One of her most recent accomplishments was returning to college three years ago to take on a full-time schedule of courses while continuing to work full-time at a local medical clinic. During that time, she proved her brilliance and capabilities by maintaining a 4.0 GPA. In May of 2023, Meagan proudly graduated from East Mississippi Community College.
