She was a friendly, caring and giving person, all delivered with a loving touch, always with a smile, a helping hand and generous amount of encouragement. Margaret was a person who knew no stranger. She touched many hearts and souls throughout her life.

She enjoyed watching the birds feed and play in the gardens she created. Her favorite being the Cardinal. She was a dog lover and truly enjoyed all the family pooches.

Recognizing the excellent care and guidance from the Skagit Valley Hospital's oncologists and superb staff, whose expertice and support lead her every step, always uplifting optimism, giving her the utmost encouragement to persevere despite her illness, she succomed to a cancer she was ever to conquer.
