Loved Margaret from the first day I met her at John Hancock. She was a loving, kind, charming and funny woman.
Always had a story for all that she cared about.
She will be missed.

Margaret was a wonderful friend to me at John Hancock: a smart and classy gal with a warm way about her and a good sense of humor. We´d kept in touch long after she retired and enjoyed sharing interests and memories. I will truly miss her!

I worked with Margaret at John Hancock on B-19, then C-4 for over 30 years, and then we continued our friendship contact with Margaret after she retired to live in Lexington. She was always a dedicated and efficient support to her "bosses" (Tom Walsh, Charlie Ormsby, John Giannino, Mike Rich, Phil O'Donnell, and - a little before retirement - Rich Boutilier) throughout her career, and a real "people person" who enlivened all her many other friends and acquaintances at JH.
And, as has already been said, she had a ready smile for all, and was upbeat and kind. She will be missed!

I worked with Margaret. She was so devoted to her boss (Charlie Ormsby) on B-19. She used to bring in home made Irish soda bread all the time and truly loved her job and was so good to all of us. May she Rest In Peace.

So sorry to hear of Margarets passing, I worked at John Hancock and we stayed in touch after I retired in 1997. Always looked forward to our phone calls. She was a wonderful person, may she rest in peace. I will never forget her. Mary & Mike
