Dick and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Margaret's death. Her kind words and patience while teaching 4H girls to hem dishtowels are a memory many of the Stanwood Needlepushers fondly recall.

Our deepest sympathies for your lose and wishing you peace in God's Love.
I feel that I have known Margaret & the whole Weirich family --and especially my Mother-in-law's "prized" pupil-Bobby.
Vera is still living, is 93 & now suffers from Alzheimer's. She doesn't always remember many people or things, but she remembers him, & tells anyone that will listen about him.
It is strange that this has occurred at just this time, as we have just placed Vera & her husband in a Nursing facility & are in the process of going through their home.
We have found a MULTITUDE of articles regarding his career, & activities. She was so very proud to have known your family & be a small part of his budding talent.
God Bless you all. I know how difficult this time in your life can be.
Dick & Vivian Getz, (Vera's son & Daughter-in-law)

Dear Dick and Family,
We just want to let you know how sadden we are to hear of Margaret's death. We thought of Margaret as an adopted parent and grandparent. She was one of the sweetest, gentle people we know. We will always remember our fun times down in Florida. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Love & God Bless
