The daughter of the late Charles and Mary (Fitzgerald) Schmitt, she was born November 20, 1923, in Montgomery.
She graduated from Montgomery High School and Ladycliff College. Margaret worked as a High School English Teacher at Maybrook High School where she was the first president of the teachers association and a basketball coach. She was a member of the Valley Central Scholarship Council.
She was the widow of Dr. Francis G. Bartle.
Margaret is survived by her sister, Mary Faulkner, daughter Janice Borland
son F. Guy Bartle Jr. & his wife Mary, daughter JoAnne Cooper & her husband Albert, daughter Mary Bunting & her husband Wilson, son-in-law William Winter
son Michael Bartle & his wife Linda, son Eric Bartle & his wife Sue; 15 grandchildren, 27 great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
Along with her husband and parents she was predeceased by her siblings C.William, Albert, Esther, Ann, and Kathryn. She was also predeceased by her daughter, Nancy Winter, grandsons Andrew Borland and Jesse Bartle, and son-in-law John Borland.
Mom loved to read, do word puzzles, spend time at Wanaksink Lake, and take trips with her sisters. As the grandchildren said, "Nana's is always open". She welcomed all her children's friends from the neighborhood even though she had 7 children of her own and also Dad's veterinary practice to run from the kitchen. Family was everything to her and she left behind a great legacy.
We are grateful to everyone who helped with mom's care which allowed her to stay at home.
