A grave site service will be held at Oakland Cemetery in Waukon, Iowa on Saturday, March 11, 2017 at 1:00 p.m. Margaret was a strong, determined, energetic and positive individual. Born in Waterloo, IA to Richard and Florence (Hotchkiss) Holmes on September 9, 1919, she graduated from West High School in 1937 and from Grinnell College in 1942. She then moved to Knoxville, TN to work for the Tennessee Valley Authority. Her college sweetheart, Mayhew “Make” Eaton had moved to Detroit for his career. After a brief long distance relationship, the couple married on May 3, 1943, and made their home in Detroit, Waterloo and finally back to Waukon, Make’s home town. Margaret’s career then became homemaker and volunteer extraordinaire. She volunteered for the Waukon Hospital Auxiliary, Meals on Wheels, was a mentor for elementary school girls, battered women’s and children’s program, and providing meals for children. She was a member of Browning Club, the St. Paul United Methodist Church Women’s Society and as the Sunday School Superintendent. She joined PEO in 1949 and was an active member until her death in Chapter’s EK and KN. In her spare time, Margaret enjoyed playing board and card games with her children and grandchildren. She was always up for a musical theatre performance, taking the children on day trips, family vacations, bridge, golf, baking, and perfecting her artistic talent for painting, drawing, and designing her own counted cross stitch patterns. Most of all she was a very positive and supportive influence to her beloved family. Margaret was blessed with good health all of her life. The last few days of her life were spent surrounded by her loving family playing games and listening to music. -------------------------
