Without knowing it, Margaret, many, many years ago, offered me the key to escaping from what was in danger of becoming a dead-end life into a life of adventure and challenge. I will never forget her - or her brother, Bill, and her brave, stoical, kind parents. May the faith that sustained her sustain her family through this loss of a beloved and loving woman....

Dear family,
My sincere condolences. How terribly sad that your mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother has passed away. From my heart, I send you a warm greeting. In 1997, she and Jerry took me in during my studies. I have warm and loving memories of them
Take care
