The family would like to thank Dr. Collins, Dr. Pluto and all the staff at the Strait Richmond Hospital who went above and beyond their role to keep our mother comfortable during her time there. Margaret was definitely a people person who enjoyed keeping in touch with her friends and family. Whether on the phone or over a cup of tea, she kept us all entertained with her witty remarks and her genuine concern of others. A great sense of humor and a great love of family are things that come to mind when remembering Mom. She leaves behind a loving family who will never forget her and will always remember her love.
