Maggie was born on September 5, 1990, to Rusty and Tammie (Block) Simons. She grew up in Pierz, MN with her sister, Rachel where she attended school and graduated with the Class of 2009. On March 5, 2011, she was united in marriage to Patrick Spychalla at St. Rita's Catholic Church in Hillman, MN. Together, they built a beautiful life centered around their greatest joy, raising their five children. Maggie held various jobs over the years, but the role she cherished most was being a devoted mother and wife. Her family was her world, and she poured her heart and soul into every moment with them. She had a gift for caring, whether for people, children, or even her beloved flowers. Her creative spirit was expressed through art, thoughtful planning, and the stunning cakes she designed and decorated with unmatched skill and love. She could have competed at the highest level with her cake creations. Maggie was the ultimate organizer and trip planner, always bringing people together and making lasting memories. She was deeply thoughtful, constantly putting others ahead of herself, and she never let a moment pass without capturing it, serving as the family's unofficial photographer. She lived life on her terms, joyfully, generously, and fully. Maggie's light, creativity, and selfless love will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
