After a brief illness and lifetime of living well with family and friends, Margaret passed away October 1st. Born in Vancouver, Margaret spent her formative years in Port Alice and various logging camps up and down the coast, her school years in Vancouver, and early married life in Port Alberni, all places she enjoyed.

Margarets loves included the world of small business, social events, card games, interior design, good food liberally seasoned, family and friends. She and her husband Everett were among the early volunteers with Parksvilles SOS.

Pre-deceased by her husband Everett, son David, and grandson Jeffrey, she is survived by sons Dan (Carol), Jim (Jeannie), Robert (Vicki), John (Judy), daughter-in-law Laurie Rankin, sister-in-law Ann Mulroney, 12 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews.

We would like to thank Dr. Penny Bartlett, the staff at Eagle Park, Betty Haun, Jocelyn Klein and other care workers for their generous support.
