    October 27, 2016

  • Our beloved Meghan Collins, age 37, went to be in the loving arms of Lord Jesus yesterday, Monday, October 24, 2016. Meghan is survived by her husband of ten years, Walter “Tommy” Houpy; her father, Gregory Collins of Glen Falls, New York; her mother, Dianne Keller Gonzales of Long Island, New York; three brothers, Warren and Jason Collins, of Long Island, New York and Sean Collins of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Meghan also leaves behind her dogs, Peyton and Sage, along with Piper the cat. Meghan was a member of Trinity Church in Hot Springs. She moved to Arkansas a little over ten years ago, where she continued using her extensive knowledge in the HVAC industry. Meghan worked for the Michael Sales Group. Meghan enjoyed shooting her guns, at least once a week, or whenever she found time to get to the range. She was an accurate shot. Meghan also constantly added to her extensive “kicks” collection. She loved to fish, whether from the banks or out on the canoe. She also loved her Detroit Tigers, Redwings, Lions and Wolverines. There are so many that have been affected by her absence. She will always be remembered for her sense of humor and quick wit. A celebration to honor Meghans’ life will be held on Saturday, October 29, 2016 at 2:00 PM in the chapel of CedarVale Funeral Home Hot Springs Village. Memorials may be made to: Potters Clay 110 Crescent Ave. Hot Springs, AR 71909 In the memo field note: “In loving memory of Meghan Collins” Arrangements entrusted to CedarVale Funeral Home in Hot Spring Village.

    We want to express our most sincere regret for the loss of Meghan to Tommy and all of her family. Not only was she a beautiful young lady both inside and out, she will be so missed by people that knew her both personally and through business. Our prayers are with each of you but especially Tommy. When I would ask Tommy about his weekend, he would always tell me what he and Meghan had done or were going to do with a smile on his face, their relationship was special. Our prayers with you all.

    Tommy, Thoughts and prayers to you now and in the difficult days ahead. There are many people you meet in your life, Meghan was one of those rare people that make a lasting impression on you the first time you meet. I remember when I met her for the first time, a smile a mile wide, infectious laugh, confident and she knew her products. If you had the chance to talk to her on the phone during the day, you always ended the call feeling better than when you started. She had the gift making you smile and laugh, whether in person or long distance. Although she left us way before her time, I am thankful for the time I knew her. I’ll always remember the last time we spoke, it was a hug and “take care” and “until next time”. Until next time Meghan.

    We did not know Meghan. We want to say that we are still sad for your loss. No death is easy to bear. But when it happens at such a young age it makes it even more difficult. When God created humans, he did not create us to die. He meant for us to live forever in paradise right here on earth. We look forward to the day when Jesus' words from John 5:28, 29 are fulfilled. "The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." May this bring you comfort.
