I am so sorry for your loss. I met Margaret at a family reunion many years ago. She was my father-in-law's cousin- She seemed to be a very sweet and gracious lady. Once again, please accept our condolences.

Our condolences to all the Ceteras. I will never forget good times and my first exposure to Yahtzee at the Cetera house. Mrs. Cetera was always welcoming. I remember her humming or singing while working. A wonderful woman at home with the angles. Love, Rick and Jane Paulas
