I am sad to discover Maggie has passed away. I met her during a visit to Paris mo to research some family history and found out she and I were cousins ( on my dads side) ! How fun that was. She was a very friendly person and had a super smile. I wish I had known her sooner. Prayers to her family

Margaret Ann was a truly, nice person. She will be missed by everyone. She had a smile for all. I went to school with her, and also knew her as an adult. She never changed, she was kind to everyone, all her life. I would attend her services, if I could. Poor health, and distance keeps me from paying my last respects.

I am so sorry to hear about Maggie's passing. Her grandmother was my grandfather's sister. I saw her at Grandmas Attic a couple of years ago and we had a wonderful visit talking about family and friends. She will be missed. Condolences to her family.
