On behalf of the Maple Creek Missionary Baptist Church we are saddened to here of the passing of Deaconess Margaret Hill. We will definitely miss her sweet spirit and her wonderful smile. Mrs. Hill served on different organizations at The Creek. Her presence was already missed during her illness. Now she is an angel on the wings of The Mother Dove flying her way to the Heavenly skies. If there's a need from The Creek please don't hesitate to inform us.
