Margaret Hagan Obituary

Margaret “Marge” Hagan - Marge passed away peacefully on June 12, 2023 surrounded by her loving family. Marge was born in San Francisco on September 25, 1936, the third child to Margaret (O’Kane) and Frank Jordan.
Marge was known to all for her sweet and sincere demeanor.
Marge grew up in the Mission District of San Francisco she attended St. John’s grammar school and St. John’s High School where she met many life long friends. Marge went onto work for Met Life for several years before meeting the love of her life.
Marge met Conn Hagan and they were married in St. Paul’s Church on June 2, 1962. Their son Frank was born in 1963 and Marge and Conn moved to Holy Name Parish where they met their life long friends and next-door neighbors of 60 years Barbara and Tom O’Brien. Thanks to Barbara, Marge was introduced to See’s Candies, which created a life long bond between the two of them. Marge dedicated her life to Conn, Frank and all of her family. Family was Marge’s entire world, and she loved spending time with Conn, Frank, Kerry, Connor& Daniel. She loved attending the boys games & many family parties.
She was a volunteer librarian at Holy Name School for many years, a den mother for the local Cub Scout group, volunteering countless hours on fundraisers assisting people in need. If you asked her for a loaf of Irish Soda Bread for a party, you got 8 loaves.
As a founding member of the United Cultural Center she spent countless enjoyable hours managing the 32/50 Club, which she would proudly say, paid off the mortgage on the Irish Center.
Very dear to Marge’s heart was her time spent volunteering at San Francisco General Hospital with her partner in crime Dolly Simmons. Due to a severe illness that forced her to spend a year in the hospital as a young woman, Marge always had a soft spot in her heart for people who were lonely and lost in the hospital. As a result of her 40 years as a volunteer, Marge was awarded the Hero’s and Hearts award in 2007 for her dedication & volunteerism to SFGH.
Marge will be missed by her loving family and friends. She is survived by her son Frank (Kerry) her grandson’s Connor (Haley Barker) and Daniel Hagan, her brother Frank (Wendy) Jordan, her in-laws Jim Hagan, Bill (Lily) Hagan, Anne Hagan, Elizabeth O’Hagan, Peggy Hagan, Maureen & Michael Murphy and many loving nieces and nephews.
Marge was preceded in death by her loving husband Conn and her cherished brother and sister in-law Jack & Patsy Jordan. When meeting Marge you knew you had met the kindest, most caring person, and your life was better for it. Love of family, friends and her unwavering faith in Jesus Christ are the values that Marge held most dear and passed onto her family. The family would like to thank all of the wonderful caretakers and staff at Alma Via of S.F. for their gentle loving care over the last few years.

Sincere sympathies to Margaret´s family, Frank, Kerry, Connor (Haley) and Daniel, to her brother Frank and his wife Wendy and to the extended Hagan family on the death of a lovely lady, Margaret.
Margaret´s cousin, Marguerite and I went to San Francisco from Ireland and stayed in Margaret and Conn´s home in the early 90´s, when we attended Margaret´s nephew´s wedding. We met the Jordan and Hagan families at the time and they gave us such a magnificent time.
Frank, you took Marguerite and myself out on the Sunday and treated us to a lovely time.
A few years later I revisited San Francisco with my husband, Philip when Conn and Margaret met us and treated us to lunch at Fisherman´s Wharf.
Frank you were blessed with wonderful parents, lovely people. I am sure their personalities and values live on in you and your family. Again sincere condolences on the recent loss of your mother and the loss of your father a few years ago.

Maura, (Marguerite´s friend and former neighbour), Galway, Ireland.

My condolences to the Hagen family on the passing of Marge. May she Rest in Peace

Dear Frank, Kerry, Conor and Daniel,

Eileen and I extend our deepest condolences on the passing of Margaret.
May she Rest in Peace. I hope these few words can do justice to a beautiful
lady, someone we had enormous admiration for. It was such a privilage
to know our cousin Marge and Con personally and to witness the love and
respect they had for each other. When we visited Margaret a day or so before
her passing it was obvious that the Angels were already circling. The next
day they swept down and gathered her up to Heaven to be with her beloved
Con. Marge was a humble, kind lady who who never sought the lime light.
There aren't enough words in the english language to do justice to Margaret's
memory. Oh how lucky we are to have had Marge ( Con ) in our lives and the
lives of our children which makes saying goodbye that much harder. For a lot
of us it is the end of an era.
When I learned of her death I couldn´t help thinking about Seamus Heany´s
epitaph. Seamus´ epitaph could easily be Margret´s "Walk on air , against
your better judgement." It sums up, for a lot of us, how Margret lived her life
and what she wanted for others especially her family and many friends.
May her gracious soul Rest in Peace.
Eileen and Martin Rooney
