Our condolences to Margaret’s family on her untimely death this week. We met her as we were on her neighborhood walking route and often visited as she passed by. Recently we received a note from her that said she prayed for us daily and wished us well during out current challenges – a very sweet woman with a loving spirit. We will miss her (and her walking stick). -Loretta & Alan Phares
Over the last year we really got to know her. She loved Halloween and passing out her note about the meaning of All Saints Day. This last year we invited her to the Rockwood parking lot for a Covid style Trunk or Treat. She made personal candy bags for our kids. She took walks everyday with her walking stick and always stopped to say hello. She will be missed.
