Dear Dan,

I have just been made aware of Maggie's passing. Doug and I want to send our love and heartfelt support. I have thought of you both often. I still remember meeting you both at the lovely Kathy's house.

I have been truly humbled by Maggie's strength and courage. She will always be one of the classiest ladies I know.

Always, Dawn Corbett

Dear Danny,

I am so very sorry to hear of Maggie's passing; I would have come to the service had I known. Maggie was a beautiful person both inside and out and I am honored to have known you both. I have some fond (funny) memories of the few times I spent with her. She was both elegant and humorous. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time and hope your memories bring you peace and comfort in the days ahead.

Dan,

My sincere condolences. Although she was beloved by all as "Maggie", at some point over the years she became Margaret in my mind. She was truly exceptional.

Dear Dan,

On behalf of the Coley's , I extend our sincere sympathies to you and Maggie's family. When I think back, I have known Maggie since the mid-1970's with my sister Ann and coming to my parents home in Bertie Bay. I was taken aback when we golfed at CHC in the summer of 2007 and you told me that Maggie had "Lou Gehrig's". I am sorry for your loss. My Mom sends her best to you as well and to tell you how much she always enjoyed Maggie and her spirit. My fondest regards,

Dan,
You are a Special Man and I found this poem and thought this as a daily reminder of how Special you were to Maggie during her Lifetime with you.
In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Dan, you will never be ALONE.
Love & Prayers, Wendy

Dear Dan,

It is with a heavy heart that I write to you today. The memories I've shared with you and Maggie are nothing but precious. At the beach in Canada or Delaware Park during a concert, she laughed and brought a smile to all that were lucky to have known her. My sincere sympathy and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Dan, I was shocked to hear of Maggie's passing. I have such fond memories of you and her when I was at your home hosting some of your dinner parties a couple of years ago. You two were the sweetest couple I have ever met. I haven't seen you or Maggie in the last couple of years, but I think about you both alot. You were both so very gracious and warm. I am so happy I had the joy of knowing you both. I will always remember Maggie. Love, Lulu

We are sorry for your loss. I was a bagpiper for the Gordons under the direction of Maggie's Dad, Jack, so I remember Jackie and Maggie from "way back when" in the '70's. Our love to her mom, Betty also.

To Ms. Roblin's family:

I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know Ms. Roblin but I followed her fundraising efforts with great interest and admiration because my dear grandfather suffered from ALS before he passed away in 1999.

After reading about her battle with the disease, I began praying for her every day. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Danny,
I am so sorry about Maggie's passing. She was a special person with a spirit to her that was second to none. I loved how she was this elegant woman, but often had a mischievous smirk on her face, looking for fun. And usually, she created that fun!

I've thought of you guys often and will miss her very much.

Sending lots of love,
