Not sure what to say?

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. I have only know Margaret for a short time,since I joined the auxillary. She seemed to be a loving and caring person and lots of fun. God will be with you.My deepths sympathy to all. She will be missed by all who knew her.

I am truly saddened by the loss of Aunt Margaret. I remember 29 years ago when we moved to 608, Aunt Margaret and Uncle Bronson came over with 2 bushels of green beans from their garden for mom ( Hilda ) to snap and can. In the winter she would help mom sew and make Amy and I clothes to wear to school. On Sundays as we walked to church, Aunt Margaret would always be outside watching to make sure we made it across the road, and always gave us a hug. She was the only person that could give hugs...

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

In Loving Memory

I am saddened by Margaret's death. She was "one of a kind" and special in every way. The way she lived her life could be a testimony to all of us. I feel blessed to have known her. I know she will be greatly missed by all who knew her. My thoughts and prayers go out to her Family and Friends during this sad and difficult time. May God's blessings be with you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

I will always remember Margaret as being an active woman, willing to help anyone. She was a big help at the Hatcher reunions, and will be greatly missed. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Aunt Margaret was a wonderful lady. I have many fond memories of her and Uncle Bronson as I was growing up. Her smile will never be forgotten. She loved her family and her grandchildren. My condolences goes out to the family during this difficult time. Hold tight to all the memories, it will help you get through this time.

Margaret lived next door to our aunt
and uncle,Jimmy and Ruth McElroy for
fifty years.
During family sadness or fun picnics
Margaret would bring her delicious
homemade baked pies.
Most of all, we'll remember her pleasant
smile and willingness to help others.
Our sincere condolences to her
family during this time.
