- Saturday, February 18th, 2012
Margaret was always such a sweet woman, she showed kindness and generosity daily in small ways. We will never forget her always asking about mom, especially at Dad's passing. I wanted you to know if we could have been there we would but we also had a death in the family and were away from Kansas at the time of Margarets services. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time.
