I am so so sorry to hear of your sudden loss. I will as you will miss her tremendously. How I will cherish her sit downs at my desk at my prior job at Quincy Credit Union. My mom and she would talk all the time and my mom loved to go to the Credit Union just to see her and talk. Margaret or Maggie to me was a special, sweet, kind, loving and gracious woman who put herself out on a limb for you. She always had time for you no matter what.
She will alway be in my heart, and I will say many prays for her. May the hearts of all of Margaret's family be lifted knowing that she was a person everyone looked up to.
My love and prays. Jimbo

Margaret was probably the kindest, sweetest, most generous person I have ever known. I worked with her at the Quincy Credit Union and she was just a ray of sunshine. I am so sorry for your tremendous loss. I feel honored to have known her and I will miss her.

Margaret was one of the nicest people I ever had the pleasure of knowing. She and I would have long talks all the time in the break room when she worked at Quincy Credit Union. I will always remember her many words of wisdom, especially if I was down or having a problem.
My deepest sympathy to all of you in the Tarushka family. Margaret, you are all better now. God Bless you and rest in peace. Thank you for being my friend.
