Margaret walked every day that she was able, she said that everyone should get out and get fresh air. Margaret loved to dance, and sing, and will always be missed dearly. An angel’s work is never done - from your son Otto.

Katrina and family,

I’ve been away from work for the past five weeks and was sorry to hear of your loss. Margaret would pop down for a chat most days. She liked to be involved and informed. I will miss her. Take care.

Katrina, Judd, and family.

Marla and I are saddened to hear of Margaret's passing. She was a shining light, and we always welcomed the chance to share some time with her, and watch her face light up with joy when the dogs would greet her. We are thinking of you all at this difficult time.
