Margaret’s Obituary
WEAVER, Margaret Isabelle passed away on Friday, May 28, 2021 in Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital, Middleton, with the love of her family surrounding her.

Margaret was a passionate community advocate and an active member of the Margaretsville United Church, the Women’s Auxiliary and was a past member of the Margaretsville Fire Department Auxiliary.
Margaret was known for her quick wit and infectious humour. She welcomed company to her home with open arms, delicious baking and preserves, and hysterical jokes. Beyond socializing and engaging in rousing games of 45’s, she was also a skilled quilter and knitter. Above all else however, Margaret will be remembered for her unwavering strong-will.

Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her husband Rupert; brothers, brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law Roland (Edith), Ivan (Phyllis), Louis, Ashley, Earl (Nelle), sister Dorothy (Carl Smith, Earle Mitchell) and companion Tom Hankinson, Middleton.
