So sorry about Margaret's passing. I think I may have been related to Vincent? My grandfather was Dr James Lee Fisher, Son of George Elmer Fisher married to Anna Martha (Goff) Fisher?

So glad that I have the memories that I do of you as my favorite Aunt and always being there for me, always kissing me on the lips no matter how old I was, always being at Mom and Dad's for Christmas Eve and having my favorite turkey dressing that only you could make. I know there were numerous times that you let me know that I was your favorite niece You and Mom were so close, guess that is why you were my favorite Aunt cause you were always around, then too living next to us for many years. I love you, always have and always will. Tell Mom, Papa, Grandma and Barry that I love them and I miss them as I know God has his loving arms around all of you!

Some of the most wonderful memories I have of you was at Christmas time. We always had to check your hands to see what new ring Uncle Vincent had gotten you. I can remember the times you would come visit Nannie and Grandaddy and see your truck going down the driveway. I would always be excited and come running to see you. And of coarse I was always embraced with wonderful hugs and a big kiss on the lips. I will never forget you Aunt Margaret. I love you very much!!!

To my favorite Aunt....I love you!!!! Oh the memories that I have of growing up with you being around all the time as the Aunt I stayed with or the Aunt I went to town with or the Aunt that I went on vacations with, the Aunt that always said I was your favorite niece, the Aunt that made the best turkey dressing and was sure to always have it for me on Thanksgiving and/or Christmas. I can remember the times that I would come downtown to visit you while you were working and you would give me a coin and press it in my hand real tight and tell me that if I kept holding it tight that it would increase...you never failed to remember me at birthday time, Christmas time and was so close to me throughout my life...I love you so much!!!!!!
