Margaret Jemison

I just heard the news of dear Margaret's passing yesterday when I had a divinely synchronisric meeting with a friend of Margaret's from Birmingham. I was and am deeply saddened to hear about her passing. I had the pleasure of meeting Margaret in the early nineties in new England at a women's herbal conference. I loved her curious and adventurous spirit and her openness to life and people. I was honored and privileged to be part of a group of women friends of Margaret's...

I am not far from Margaret's house in Old Chatham, NY. The last time I was here--I stayed with Margaret while helping with the move into the beautiful old home overlooking the Hudson River Valley. That was almost exactly 5 years ago--on Memorial Day weekend of 2019.

Even though I hadn't seen her in a long time, I still see the smile that lit up a room. Her laugh.. Special person indeed!

A beautiful friend--since 1976. I last saw Margaret at her Old Chatham home--helping her move in 2 years ago on Memorial Day weekend.
I was fortunate to have several visits over the past decades--twice to N.C.---and she flew out here to SW Colorado in July of 2009. I am heartbroken over losing such a friend. A generous spirit--she was always willing to help in any way she could.
Perhaps we will meet again, dear Margaret. XXO Jack

Margaret was a special friend of the Golden Temple. She had a light and spirit which uplifted us. May God bless her soul and embrace her.
