She was a wonderful grandmother to Emily, Kamaya and Elias, and recently became a great-grandmother to Xander.

Margo was a devoted mother who loved her children and grandchildren. Her passion was her family and she spent most of her time with them.

My dear friend, I am so sad to see you go, too many times I would catch up with you later. I can clearly see us sneaking up the backstairway to the church Bell tower, goofing off in sunday school, working and wailing with our boss back in the day! and you helping me face some of my greatest fears. My heart is heavy. My lesson even now is don't wait... spend the time now to share with each other in the moment. Love you
