We are saddened to hear of the passing of Margaret. She was always a joy to see walking through our shop door at Aus-Tex Coins. She had many a story of her life growing up in Germany & was always much help at translating the items that we'd bought over the years. I believe she came in more to talk with my dad Col. Frederic McCoy since he lived there quite some time & flew the Berlin airlift.
She did so much for Austin & will be missed by everyone I sure.

Grama, I will miss you greatly, I think about you and our talks everyday. You are now and always have been my life and my rock. I miss you so very much. I will always miss the times when you'd read "Max und Moritz" to me in German and how I would get tickled at them. I LOVE YOU!!!

My mom, Mae Hofmann had visited her and also met Otto many times at Sun Harvest in Austin when we still lived there. We all talked...

I remember reading in the newspaper, from time to time, of her concerns and activities~which enabled me to "feel her heart"...and I have always thought of her as "A truly Great American". Austin has been blessed by her presence, and I believe we will continue to be...
