Shari Mason Margaret will truly be missed. She had a wonderful sense of humour, some great advice and a kind caring loving way about her. I know she will be remembered with fond memories as she had touched so many lives including mine.

Ellen Fixsen The memories of times with your mom, my cousin, are from my childhood, going to the farm and spending Christmas together. She was 8 years older that me and so I looked up to her as special in spite of her teasing. In these last years I have admired her grit and wit in the telephone conversations we have had. Time marches on and our next conversation will be in heaven.
You will miss her but we do not mourn as those who have no hope, for which I am very thankful
God bless all of you, her loved family

June Baker Dear Richard, Gordon, Murray and Brent,
May the God of all comfort surround you with His love and peace.
I remember so many wonderful times at your house Richard and Karen with your Mom and Dad and all the rest of our families. Your Mom was a precious lady always ready to tease and laugh. She was always so good to my Mom and would visit her many times and play the piano at Chown Place.
She has just changed her address and is now residing in Heaven with your Dad and Jesus and we will see them again in God’s timing.
You are in my thoughts and prayers. I love you, June

Terr and Paul We enjoyed living across the street on Irma from your Mom and Dad for about 20 years. They were wonderful neighbours and we were sad when they moved from the cul de sac. We remember the “boys” coming for breakfast almost every weekend for those many years. Margaret was all about family and very proud of her children. We offer our sincere condolences for the loss of your gracious mother.
Sincerely, Terri and Paul
Richard and Karen and family…just saw the obit for your mom’s passing and wanted to offer my condolences. Loss is never easy.
