I have known Margaret for many, many years, since the late 70s. When I worked for the school system, I worked with her indirectly. Boy, she knew her job like the back of her hand! She was a great mom and grandma, and she loved her children and grandchildren more than anything. I also knew her because of sports. She really loved football and went to all of the games when Brett played. Margaret will be remembered for her down-to-earth sense of humor, her genuineness and her honesty.
