I am heartbroken. I am in charge of activities at Margarets home. She made my day everytime I walked through the door! Her beautiful smile lit up the room... I take comfort in knowing that she is now back with her beloved parents, and hopefully dancing and singing with John Lennon himself! My prayers go out to the family, as I say goodbye to a special friend. <3

I was so sorry to learn of Margaret's passing. She was my neighbor, and truly a sweet and lovely young woman. She would "make my day" each time she greeted me with her pretty smile!
