MEGAN THERESA LITTLE (MCNALLY)
Cedar Rapids
Megan Theresa Little (McNally), 46, passed away
in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, on Nov. 20, 2016.
She was born in Des Moines, Iowa, to Terrance Clark and Mary Kathryn McNally (Evans). She attended Dowling High School in West Des Moines and later attended Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg, Mo. She was an Alpha Omicron Pi sorority sister and graduated in 1994 with a bachelor of science in hotel and restaurant administration.
Megan is survived by her loving husband of 22 years, Marvin Jay Little; sons, Merritt and Mason; daughter, Mia; mother, Mary Kathryn McNally; sisters and brothers-in-law, Colleen and Ernest Jennings and Erin and Robert Poche; and niece, Katie Poche.
With her outgoing and vibrant personality and love of hospitality, she made friends all over the world. Megan worked for several years in hotel sales management before having her first son, Merritt, in Cedar Rapids. Merritt was born in 1999, and a year later the family moved to France, where they lived for five years and had their second son, Mason, in 2002. After moving back to Cedar Rapids, Megan's daughter, Mia, was born in 2008. The family moved to Singapore in 2012 and then moved to the UAE in 2015. She was a talented singer, adventurer and loved traveling the world. More than anything she was dedicated to her children and will always be remembered as a loving and supportive mother and wife.
The family will receive friends from 4 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 11, at Iles Dunn's Chapel, 2121 Grand Ave., Des Moines, IA 50312.
