Read More	Margaret Toews was born to Aaron L. and Katherine Toews on April 17, 1923, at Rosenort, Manitoba. After failing health, Margaret was granted the desire of her heart when the Lord lovingly called her home to everlasting rest and happiness. She peacefully breathed her last on December 23, 2002, at the Linden Nursing Home, Linden, Alberta, where she had resided for almost four years. She reached the age of seventy-nine years. Margaret gave her heart to the Lord in 1937. She was baptized into the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite; she remained a faithful sister. When Margaret was seven and one half years old, our mother died, leaving a family of seven very young children. At this tender age, Margaret learned to accept responsibilities and to cope with situations rarely required of a child so young. The older siblings have memories of her warm, caring heart. Dad married Margaret Loewen in 1931, giving us a wonderful loving mother. Three sons and one daughter joined the family. We were foremost and always one compact family, never once distinguished as half brothers and sisters. Suffering with rickets in her infant years, Margaret never grew to be robust and strong in body. However, she had a character of inner strength, which deflected and minimized her physical frailties. She worked at various occupations, including many household jobs, managing a coffee shop, and later a grocery store jointly owned with Dad. Her greatest love was baking, and many people will remember her generous gifts of baked goodies. Margaret had many friends, and she delighted in visiting them. When our mother Margaret died, Margaret was happily busy keeping house for Dad. She gave herself unselfishly, helping the family as well as others. Left to cherish fond memories are two sisters and four brothers: Willie and Emmeline, Dewberry, Alberta; Louise and Sam Boese, Linden, Alberta; Gus and Aileen, Kelowna, British Columbia; Jesse and Eleanor, Levi and Vernice, Abbotsford, British Columbia; and Tina and Harold Wiebe, Spirit River, Alberta; sister-in-law, Clara Toews; brother-in-law, Carl and Laverna Schartner; and numerous nieces and nephews and friends. Preceding her in death were her parents, three brothers, one sister, and two sisters-in-law. Funeral services were held at the Linden Congregation, Linden, Alberta, on December 28, 2002. Min. Jake Boese, Min. Ed Boese, and Min. Cornie Unruh officiated. Burial was in the adjoining church cemetery with Min. Bert Boese in charge.
