Margaret Cossey Obituary

The family of Margaret Cossey is saddened to announce her passing on December 16, 2019. Born in Sacramento on February 17, 1939, Margaret is survived by siblings, Paula and Larry Langbehn, her grandchildren, Chelsea and Dustin Ciscoe, and great-grandchildren Bentley, Liara, Bella and Ronin. Margaret was preceded in death by her husband Albert Cossey and beloved children, Blake Cossey and Tamara Ciscoe. Our Margaret was a beautiful angelic soul who enjoyed the arts, gardening, and was a Master Food Preserver. From her teens, she had a deep love of classical music, taught piano throughout her life and was a contributor to the music department at CSUS. Most of all, she enjoyed her time and shared her love with her grandchildren. Margaret had the purest heart for any and all who have been blessed to be a part of her life. We will forever miss our Margaret. She is our angel in heaven and we cherish every moment we had with her as we carry on her memory. In honor of Margaret, a Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 25th at 10:00 a.m. at the Dante Club, 2330 Fair Oaks Blvd, 95825.

Mom, I miss you every day. I love how you visit me in my dreams. I was so blessed to have your support and guidance in my life. Can't wait to see you again. I know you were so happy to see dad, Blake, Tammy, your mom and dad and everyone else who were waiting for you.
You are so loved and touched so many people in such a kind beautiful way. Please sprinkle some of that graciousness on me... all my love. Keep visiting me, I love it, and you.

Margaret was a lovely person from the first time I met her. We only occasionally met, but it was memorable and lasting. She will be missed for her lovely simile and compassion.
