I was blessed to be a small part of Aunt Margaret's life. She held a special spot in my heart as she filled a spot for me when my own mom passed on when I was young. Never trying to take mom's place but just being there for strength to build on. Her devotion to her family was neverending. A strong woman with character and a beautiful sense of humor & quick wit. I always loved knowing that she and my mom enjoyed each other so much. My condolences to Jane & Terry as well as all those grandkids & greats she spoke so fondly of. Love, Barb
