Ann & Wes, Skip & Lou, Ellen, Hugh, Carol, and all of your extended families,
Unfortunately, I do not get the newspaper and missed all the events surrounding the death and funeral of Margaret. Even though I had not seen her in some time, perhaps dwelling on the good memories we have is the thing to do. To me she was a pillar of strength and dignity for her family and this community.
I will always remember her as a modern day Proverbs 31 woman. I can see her standing in the doorway now…and I can taste something good that she baked. Thank you all for sharing her with us.
Much love and fond memories of a distinguished lady,

My deepest sympathy for your loss. Ann & Wes, Skip & Lou and to all the family, I really enjoyed talking to Mrs Kite on my visits to Culpeper. A kind and gracious woman.
God Bless,
Darryl Eppard & family

Mrs. Margaret Kite was a very giving and kind person. I always found her sense of humor a breath of fresh air. I have missed seeing her around the hospital and think of her often. I'm sadden by this loss.
