Margaret was a lovely neighbor, I enjoyed her company over many a cup of coffee. We always had a really good laugh and put the world to rights. She loved her family fiercely she spoke of you all with great love, she worried about you when you were going through health issues, especially Michelle. I had the honor of praying with her especially in those trying times. Margaret was a beautiful diamond who always sparkled, a no nonsense lady and fiercely independent. It was a pleasure to have known and loved her for who she was....very remarkable. She will be sadly missed. I'm so sorry for your loss family . Big hugs to you all.❤
