I had met Margaret when my Mother moved to Fernandina about fifteen years ago. My Mother, Norma DeMerit, enjoyed her friendship very much, and Margaret was instrumental in welcoming her to the Church and to the area. Margaret was a lovely lady, and I know you miss her presence on this earth. Perhaps they are together sharing in Bible studies once again. Take care and God Bless.
