I remember seeing Miranda in the mid nineties passing through the hallways of Arroyo Grande high School. She always looked beautiful. It wasn't until I interacted with her in my science class that I really got to know just how special she is. I loved her great sense of humor.I remember her junk car she poked fun at and I know she liked orchids. She was  truely a good person that I am happy to have shared time with on this earth.My father passed away on March 13th 2022, and to find out Miranda had passed away the very next year. I've been trying to heal to say the least. My condolences go out to her family.

Dear Miranda, I can't believe it has been a year since your journey here ended. It seems like three months ago that I heard you had earned your angel wings. Although, you may now have wings, I daresay it was a NEW set of wings since it is with great certainty that I know you wore wings down here as well. Though no one's life here meanders perfectly, your gentle and kind soul navigated life's bumps and hills with grace and dignity, always caring about the person next to you more than you ever worried about yourself. This is the you I knew during our short time together. You went off into the world and I lost touch with you, but I have no doubt that you graced people's lives in such a way that you changed them. I think of you often, and one day I hope to share the experience of wings with you. Tell my mom hello, please. Love and hugs forever, Carol

Dear Miranda,  I can't believe it has been a year since your journey here ended.  It seems like three months ago that I heard you had earned your angel wings.  Although, you may now have wings, I daresay it was a NEW set of wings since it is with great certainty that I know you wore wings down here as well.  Though no one's life here meanders perfectly, your gentle and kind soul navigated life's bumps and hills with grace and dignity, always caring about the person next to you more than you ever worried about yourself.  This is the you I knew during our short time together.  You went off into the world and I lost touch with you, but I have no doubt that you graced people's lives in such a way that you changed them.  I think of you often, and one day I hope to share the experience of wings with you.  Tell my mom hello, please.  Love and hugs forever, Carol

I was so saddened when I heard the news of Miranda's passing. Her mom and I are first cousins and we grew up close. Miranda was a beautiful woman. Because of the distance between us I only got to see her a few times. My heart breaks for Cindy and Charlie on this tremendous loss. I’m sure her sister Heather is also feeling the loss. Much love, Bevy

I met Miranda the night my first granddaughter, Olivia, was born 12 years ago.  She was in the waiting room with our family, and 4 years later helped welcome her sister, Valerie.  Miranda was very close to the girls, helping with childcare, hosting Valerie’s baby shower, attentive in so many ways.  A perfect example of this is an adorable video Miranda posted on Instagram—Hair Salon—with Valerie (age 6) as the hairdresser!  Her love, patience, humor and beauty shine through.  We’ll miss her so much. 

I cannot wrap my brain around the fact that sweet Miranda is gone from amongst us.  It has been years since I last saw her yet I still think of her as extended family. I knew her when she was a child. And sweet she always was.  Kind, creative, caring, and a sensitive soul.  My deepest condolences to her entire family....my heart breaks for all of you in this deep loss. There are no words that can describe this.  I send you all my love.

Miranda was a shining star, loved working with her and will always have the memory of my wedding day makeup by her.  A huge loss for all.
