Not sure what to say?

Margaret was dear to me when I moved to Charlottesville to marry John and I did not know anyone. Always smiling at me!

John - I hope you get this message as I have had a hard time finding an address for you. I have had you in my thoughts and have such wonderful memories of your mother. She was one of a kind and always so special to me. i am sorry I was not able to attend her services and hope at some point our paths will cross again. With love, Carter Warren Franke

Margaret was a beloved and active member of The Center for decades and a great advocate as well. My thoughts are with her family and friends. Peter Thompson

Dear John and family, I´m very sorry about the passing of your mother. She was one-of-a-kind! My mother adored her, and they had lots of fun together playing tennis and different activities over the years. She was always upbeat and funny - a ray of sunshine. I know you will miss her greatly.

Mrs. Grove or "Mrs. Groovy" as she was sometimes called was my Madam for Madam Day one year. I had lots of silly hints and we had a special bond thereafter. One of my favorite memories was when Ann Holland (a famous Latin Teacher) in the 1980s was on TV being interviewed. Mrs. "Groovy" called in (while we were all watching in the library) and asked something along the lines of "how is it that you are such an amazing wife/mother/teacher and manage look so pretty every day and be so nice?" Ann...

Margaret was my mother´s very good friend and I also felt the light of her love. She was a special individual indeed and her fun loving ways always made me laugh! Any human she touched is better off for having known her. Mom (Vivien Johnson) and I believe that Margaret is everywhere now and her love is showering us all.

Sweet Margaret.. enjoy have the opportunity to have met you. What a gentle soul. Condolences to family and friends.

Whether it was a bar in Cape May or a restaurant in Charlottesville, it was always wonderful to run into Margaret. She was one of a kind, and we will all miss her.
