Still so surreal. Meeting Margaret at Merchants years ago it was easy to see how her contagious laugh and positive outlook on any given situation - in spite of her own challenges - were what she will always be remembered for. You could always count on her for that boost of encouragement and a virtual or in person "pat-on-the-back. She was so very proud of Heather - and Jason and those beautiful grand babies ... boasting of each whenever the opportunity presented itself. It´s so true what they say "only the good die young" - she was GREAT ... and truly has left a hole in so many hearts. Her beautiful Legacy will live on in the faces of all who were made better to have known her - most especially her family. My heart just breaks - especially for Peter, Heather & Jason and those beautiful kids. In my thoughts and prayers... Sueanne (Miller) Jacobs
