Margaret taught our children in Sunday School and taught the rest of us by her example of grace, wisdom, and faith. I always respected her counsel and valued her friendship. "Well done, good and faithful servant . . ."

More than twenty-five years ago Margaret took me to the old Sifton Cemetery and helped me find the graves of my ancesters. We shared a common heritage, and she was generous with whatever information she had about the family. I'm so sorry to learn of her passing. She was always very kind, and never missed sending a Christmas letter.

Miss Heller was principal at Harney Elementary when I went there. She was a very kind lady. She surprised us when she came to my father's memorial in 2001. He had been President of the PTA and Margaret had remembered after all these years!

I was saddened to learn of Margaret's passing. This spring a friend and I had two wonderful visits with her. The time flew by as we recalled many happy memories of our Sarah J. days. Margaret had an incredible memory putting us to shame. She also introduced me to the tv program "Dr. Martin. I now think of her every time I watch that program. Rest in Peace, Margaret. You will be missed but Heaven is a brighter place with you there. Love, Jeanie
