Surrounded by her loving family, Meghan Mellor Trulaske Miers passed away peacefully on April 2, 2024 after an illness she endured and accepted with dignity and grace. 

She is survived by her loving husband Justin Miers and young children, Jude and Oli.  She is also survived by her mother, Marcia Jeanne Hart (Gene Fluri), stepmother Sarah Trulaske, sister Jeanne Marie Trulaske Dalba (Paul) and her brothers John Bechtold (Vitalija), Christopher Trulaske and Stephen Kincaid.  She is predeceased by her father Robert J. Trulaske, Jr.  Meghan was born in St. Louis on May 4, 1979.  She graduated from John Burroughs High School where she enjoyed participating in theater productions and studio arts. 

Meghan made lifelong friends while living in New York (Skidmore College Class of '01), Oregon, and Maine.  Meghan was endlessly creative and her home was filled with her beautiful handiwork.  Her most creative endeavor was the beautiful life she made and shared with Justin and their children. 

Her philanthropic spirit was evidenced by her time spent on nonprofit boards, generous donations to local organizations and volunteer work.  The family wishes to thank the caring and skilled medical professionals who helped Meghan throughout her illness. 

In lieu of flowers we are celebrating Meghan’s life by encouraging everyone to use their own creativity to give back and help change others’ lives.  On June 28, 2024 at 11 am family and friends will celebrate Meghan’s life among the beauty of the Missouri Botanical Gardens and the joy and energy of young children
