I have so many great memories of staying with Aunt Maggie and Bob in Buffalo. I especially loved going to eat with them at local favorites like Anderson´s and Ted´s. Aunt Maggie was such a kind and thoughtful person. She will be missed very much.

"Aunt Maggie", as my dear husband always referred to Margaret, became part of my family, and a dear friend , on my marriage to her nephew, Stephan. I have so many memories of good times spent together on Longboat Key, in Florida, when Margaret joined Stephan and me on holiday. There were many humorous events that happened, which even now give me cause for laughter when I think about them.

Rest in peace Aunt Maggie, happy in the company of your family, husband Bob - what a special person he was - and your many friends.
