Small world; I work with Bridget at Gannon & I worked with Margaret at Sears for years. I don't think I knew she was Bridget's mother-in-law or I'd of told Bridget to send her my love! I absolutely loved Margaret & was just thinking about her & the other women I worked with; Margaret, Sadie, Marge, Jean, Carol, Sharon, Marianne; what a great group of women I had to mentor me! God bless her family & friends at this difficult time. May she rest in peace. Pam Vogt Duffin
