Born: May 27, 1933 Death: June 30, 2019
Born on May 27, 1933, Margaret grew up in Williamsburg, graduating from Stanley Consolidated High School. She went on to study radiology in Fredericton and worked as an X-Ray Technician at the Victoria Public Hospital. She left that career early, to raise her family but she often recounted her many happy memories from those earlier days with her friends and colleagues.
After a few years living in Fredericton, the family returned to the Stanley area where she became heavily involved with church and music. Margaret had a tremendous love for gospel music and she shared her talent by playing at weekly services for many churches, as well as various other musical events in the Stanley area.
She had special memories of the many years spent practicing and performing with dear friends in their group “Country Joy” and also several years spent performing with the Stanley Players Theatre group.
Margaret was a woman of great faith and over several decades was deeply devoted to a weekly Bible Study, with very dear friends.
Special thanks to those who visited and offered prayers during her illness.
