Obituary

Margaret M. (Malick) Swope, affectionately known to many as “Peggy,” passed away on Wednesday, April 29, 2020 of complications from COVID-19… Margaret worked as bookkeeper for a number of years at Household Finance and at Heidelberg Country Club. However, she spent most of her life helping to manage two farms with her husband. They initially operated a dairy farm in Bern Township, and after that was seized as part of the Blue Marsh Dam project, they purchased a farm in Jefferson Township. Margaret was a member of Saint Francis de Sales Catholic Church in Robesonia and was a long-time organist and religious education teacher.
