Margaret Schofield/Constable Obituary
SCHOFIELD/CONSTABLE, Margaret (June 28, 1963 May 10, 2008) Margaret would often Imagine" what it would be like to walk beside her Lord and Saviour, to kneel before His throne and sing His praises. She slipped away from Invermere Hospital into His presence on Saturday May 10, 2008. We believe she was welcomed by her father, Alan, who died earlier this year. No doubt he'd already put the kettle on for tea and Dutch Bakery cookies. They will wait patiently for Betty to join them. Margaret leaves her loving husband, Greg Constable, and their two beloved children, William and Christine, at home in Invermere, and Greg's parents, Bill and Nan Constable, in Creston. Greg's siblings are in Ottawa and Kimberley. Margaret has an aunt and uncle in Victoria and an aunt in the UK. There are many relatives and good friends on Vancouver Island as well as in the UK. Since her breast cancer diagnosis in 2001, she and her family have been surrounded by many dear friends. We thank them all for their love and care. A memorial service will take place at 4pm Wednesday, May 14, at Christ Church Trinity in Invermere. By her request, gifts to Margaret's memory may be made to The Stephen Lewis Foundation, Grannies a Go-Go" (housing) or to Eagle Bay Camp, both in care of and payable to Christ Church Trinity, Invermere. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service Condolences for the family can be offered at www.mcphersonfh.com 467418

I am very sad to hear that Margaret lost her battle with cancer. I hear the song "Imagine" on the Christian radio station every day on my way to/from work. Now Margaret will always be associated with that song for me and will be in my thoughts, just as I have a special song for my son.
In the words of Margaret the last time we were together, "Life isn't fair, but there is nothing we can do about it". Sending you many hugs and prayers from me.
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real...
For Margaret:
You may not think the world needed you, but it did. For you were unique: like no one that has ever been before or will come after. No one can speak with your voice; say your piece; smile your smile; or shine your light. No one can take your place for it was yours alone to fill. Because you are not here to shine your light, who knows how many travellers will lose their way as they try to pass by your empty place in the darkness...
I will miss you, my high school chum, my Maid of Honour, my daughter's Godmother, my friend who understood the path of grief I was on as you were walking a similiar path.... Give David a hug for me... I know you will have finally met him.
