Margaret E. Stone, age 54, fell asleep in death March 26, 2007. Margaret was born and raised in the Pennsauken, New Jersey area. She was the youngest of six children born to William D. and Pearl J. Elam. She graduated from Pennsauken High School in New Jersey in 1970. Shortly thereafter, she moved to West Los Angeles where she met and married her loving husband, Ervin K. Stone, in 1980. In 1988, they moved to Ontario, California. There, they raised their three children, one boy and two girls. Margaret loved life and her hunger for truth caused her to study the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses and gain accurate knowledge of Jehovah God. Margaret lived a rich and full life of service to Jehovah and dedicated her life and was baptized in 1968 as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. She always desired to stay faithful and give Jehovah her very best. Many who knew Margaret can agree, though sickly, she always looked to Jehovah for her strength, comfort an d hope. She believed with stong conviction Jehovah's promise made at John 11:25 of a resurrection to life on earth. Margaret will be fondly remembered for her warm, infectious smile, cheerfulness, positive attitude, kindness, tremendous sense of humor, her love of laughter, and her love for people. She is survived by her loving husband of 27 years, Ervin K. Stone, son Sheryon C. Carter, Nicole Stone and Allyson Stone. She is preceded in death by her older sister, Joan Pearl Glass and her parents. Ma rgaret will be sorely missed, but never forgotten. We can't wait to welcome Margaret back to life in Jehovah's beautiful paradise here on earth in the near future.
