GOD Help Us All To Have A "Brand" Of Christianity That Is More Like That Which Margaret Carried. It Is VERY Hard To Deny That Margaret KNEW Her Savior.
Sincere Condolences To Entire Family.

Margaret and I shared a lot of good times delivering Bread of Love, and having lunch afterward. She will always have a special place in my heart.
