Dear Eddie and Family
We are deeply sorry of Margaret passing.. She was a wonderful person. She loved her children and was always smiling. May she find peace in heaven with the good Lord. She will now be your guardian angel, watching over everyone. Rest in Peace.

Although we only had the opportunity to meet Margaret (Nana) a few times, it was a great pleasure. She was a sweet and gentle soul. May God speed to comfort you, Edward, and your family at this difficult time experiencing multiple losses. I posted photographs of fond memories with Margaret (Nana) at your grandson's (Christopher) bride's (Mallory) wedding shower. It was a fun and memorable day. We hope all of your fond memories comfort you as you honor and remember the wonderful life you made together. Your son (Steve) and his wife (Sue) are wonderful people and we cherish having their son (Chris) and your beautiful great-granddaughter (Paige) in our family. Life is a circle, and we feel blessed that our circles have joined. Again, may God speed to comfort you and your entire family at this time of loss. You have our deepest sympathies and prayers.

Mom-
The many years I have been blessed to have with you as an adult women has been some of the best years of my life. As a child we "really" don't get to know our parents, through no fault of anyone, we never quite realize how selfless a Mom is until we become one. We have spent so many hours and days just sharing everything with each other (those times will never be forgotten). I feel so very Blessed to have always called you my "Best Friend". Im so grateful you knew that! It was the hardest thing I ever had to do to let you go, but the promises I made to you will be held onto tightly. You have given to me more than words can ever express ... And for that, I am so Thankful. Mom, I pray that you are safe and well. Please keep a close eye on Joe for me. I Love You With All My Heart.....

I'm so sorry for your family's loss. The following link will take you to a tract entitled " Can the dead really live again?" It has brought comfort to many & I hope it will do the same for you. https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/dead-live-again-tract/dead-live-again/

I am so blessed to have had this dear woman in my life for the past 20 years. Margaret was a wonderful woman, kind and loving. She loved to garden and decorate her home. She could take the most unlikely things and turn them into something beautiful. Her husband, family, her gardening and decorating were her passions. I somehow believe she will manage to make Heaven even more beautiful, by her mere prescence. Margaret, you will always be in my heart as well as the hearts of all those who knew you and loved you.

Margaret was a great sister and she carried that onto a family of her own. She loved them with all her heart and was loved in return. She will be missed by many. But she left us with some fond memories. God bless her and help her family to move forward with her in their hearts.
