I worked with Margaret at Johnston Willis hospital and again at Anthem. I was her preceptor at Anthem. She was a joy to be around. We would talk for hours about our families and our church families. On occasion when my children were little we would come to Abner to worship and also go to Bible school. When I went to a different department in Anthem I would still try to see her and talk with her. After retirement the only time I saw her was election day she was always there no matter the time. We would catch up on things.
To her family she loved you very much cherish the memories and know that you will see her again one day. Love from Carol

I was a Nursing School classmate of Margaret. We spent many hours in a "study group" for about 2 years and she always talked about how much she loved her family. I looked up to her as a great role model . She knew what to say to lift our spirits during the difficult times in nursing school . What a privilege it was to know Margaret. May God be with you and your family during this difficult time in your lives. RIP Margaret

To the Harris family, my heart is with you. I met Mrs. Margaret at Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield working in Outpatient Review Unit. Before our workday started, I recall Mrs. Margaret having devotional time at her desk every morning while having her breakfast. She was indeed a steadfast woman of God. I will cherish the memory of our conversations which always ended with laughter. May the God we serve give you comfort and peace.
