I am so sorry to hear about Margaret - but what a wonderful life and family legacy she leaves. I will miss seeing her at Oakleaf. (She was a dinner partner with my Dad, Warren.) Lois

I will miss Margaret terribly. I have had the privilege of being her hairstylist while she was at Oakleaf Village. I'm sorry I didn't make it to the service, but please know that you ( the family) are in my thoughts and prayers.

Although I only knew her for a short time, she had a loving spirit & I grew to love her right away. She will be missed but not forgotten!
