Terry & Linda -

I loved your Mom dearly. She was very special to me. I am so sorry for you loss. She was a beautiful person and I am honored that I had her in my life. I still have an angel statue that plays music on my dresser that she gave to me when I was about 14 years old. God bless you. Holly Nelson Sweeney (Dorset Road neighgor)

Margaret Mattson was an important influence in my early life. Some of my earliest memories of St. Stephens are of Margaret teaching Sunday school and organizing our Christmas pageants. By the age of 4 or 5, I would only go yo Sunday school if she was teaching. She was always so kind and patient with the children.
She remains model for me and I miss her.

She loved us all some much but was ready to spend the rest of her days with God and my Grandfather in heaven. Now they watch over us until we meet again.
