Margaret was a great cook, her roast beef and noodles, fried chicken, biscuits and gravy, homemade pies, and cookies were much in demand for family gatherings and will never be forgotten. She enjoyed summers at the trailer on Portage Lake with her children, her sisters, and many nieces and nephews. Later in life, she spent her time at the lake with her grandchildren. Margaret loved to bowl. She bowled on a league with family and friends for many years. Another one of her passions was crafting. Crochet, plastic canvas, beading / jewelry, ceramics and fabric painting to name a few. She was always working on something.

Life only got better when those same grandchildren made her a great-grandmother.
