for Margaret Haggitt
June 23, 2016
I am so sorry for the loss of your loved one, Margaret. Margaret was one of the last five remaining graduates (that we are aware of) from the 1943 class of Pinconning High School. Margaret lived two blocks from me as we were growing up (Our family always delivered the newspapers).
We had some great times. Dorothy Kowaleski Croucher

I have many happy childhood memories of special times all of us cousins/aunts spent together. I wish in my adult years I could have been closer in miles but we did keep in touch often. You were special Aunt Margaret and memories are treasures time cannot take away. I feel blessed to have had you as my Godmother and now I have another angel in heaven looking out for me.

Margaret was a sweetheart, we worked together at the blood center. She will be missed, but what a joy to know that she is at home with our Lord.
