We are sad to say goodbye to our mum who passed away peacefully January 2, 2023. She is loved by her four children Richard, Moira, Elizabeth and David, their partners Rossy, Andy, Lee and Michelle, and her grandchildren Harry, Russell and Stella. She is the daughter of Alexander MacLeod Baird and Phyllis (Petty) Baird and is survived by her brother, Ian MacLeod Baird.
Margaret grew up in Oak Bay graduating from Oak Bay High with the class of 1956. She went on to nursing at the University of British Columbia (B.S.N. class of 1961), University of Washington (M.N. class of 1968) and the University of Michigan (M.P.H. class of 1974). She was an Associate Professor at the School of Nursing at the University of Windsor 1968-1974. Margaret was a trailblazing woman in public health nursing, providing leadership in the delivery of Perinatal Care in the Province of British Columbia’s Ministry of Health. Her special interest was in Mother-Babe health initiatives and she was the co-editor of Baby’s Best Chance. Margaret loved her time helping new mums and was never happier than when she had the opportunity to be a Kangaroo for newborns.
Margaret lived in many communities throughout BC, Washington State and Ontario, but returned to Victoria to raise her family. With her kindness and generosity, she made friends around the world that lasted a lifetime. Condolences may be offered to the family below.
