Proud great-grandmother to Dawson and Jacob. Margaret was the little sister to 4 brothers, who predeceased her: Lewis, Thomas, Roderick and Ken. She is survived by her sisters-in-law Ann Kerr and Ruth Fraser. She will be remembered in a wonderful way by her many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. They all were such a special part of her life.
Her hands were rarely still, working alongside Dad on the farm, a nurse at the Smith Clinic and later at the Heritage Lodge all while raising her 5 children. All who knew her will cherish memories of Mom’s kind support, her grace and her underlying love.
Margaret was an active member of the ACW, Women’s Institute and decorated many wedding cakes over the years.
