Margaret Beetz

Margaret Doyle Beetz, a Simsbury native who spent most of her life in Simsbury died in the early morning hours of April 6th after a struggle with cancer.

Some years later the agency was sold to Sinclair Risk and Financial Management where she continued her sales career until her death.Margie had a strong and loving personality.
