I met Margaret when she was dating my brother. That relationship didn´t last, but my relationship with Margaret has been consistent over the years and I will never forget her. She always had a wise thing to say and did not hesitate to express it. I will miss you, Margaret and I hope you´ve gone to a better place.

Margaret was someone whose spirit and warmth filled every room. My father knew Margaret for over 20 years, and he had worked for her and helped her around her house throughout those years. It was three years ago that he introduced me to her-but the connection we shared quickly felt like a lifelong friendship.
Margaret had a real love for shopping and always had the coolest gadgets or clever tricks for my house. She loved taking vacations and was always so excited to tell me about her trips, the places she went, the interesting things she bought, and all the different foods she got to try.
She had a joyful affection for animals, and her passion for cooking inspired me to find my own joy in the kitchen again. Margaret was always there for my son and me, no matter what life brought our way. No matter how tough things got, she found a way to turn a bad moment into something good. Her positive spirit guided us and uplifted everyone around her.

Today, Margaret is an angel in the sky, free to fly and watch over us with the same wonderful spirit and kindness she shared here on earth.
Rest peacefully, Margaret, knowing that your spirit lives on in all of us.
