I became acquainted with Margaret when I started ‘hosting’ the weekly Farkel game & lunch at Drake’s. She was a joy to have in the group. She also went on some of the bus trips and I remember at one show/musical, she got up and danced in aisle during one of the songs. I also remember her birthday gift in a box of chocolates that she stored in her refrigerator, that turned out to be cold cash. We shared a nice laugh over that. Such a precious lady who will be greatly missed.

Sincere sympathy to All who loved and will miss beautiful Ms. Margaret. Such a kind and loving person. As I arrived for weekly Mass at the Chapel on Wednesday, her smiling face greeted me. She took her role as sacristan very seriously and served her Lord and his people well. Rest well Margaret, I can imagine you in heaven enjoying a good cold beer! 💕 ✝️
My sincere sympathies to the family. It was so fun having Margaret across the street in Sartell. She was always full of pep and energy and embraced all she met. Will miss Margaret.
Our heartfelt condolences. She was such a treasure! A very kind, warm hearted, fun loving and spunky little lady who will be greatly missed!
