Margaret Helen Summers Shuler was born in a two-room house on a farm on February 5, 1923, five miles southwest of Bennett, Colorado. She began school in a one-room schoolhouse and later graduated from Byers High School in Byers, Colorado. After high school, Margaret attended one year of Success Business College and then began working for a family as a way to pay for room and board. During the later years of her career, Margaret remembers winning an award for her Amway and Nutrilite businesses, which she began in 1964.
Margaret, who accepted Jesus Christ as her Savior at the age of nine or ten, also enjoyed working at her church, Calvary Temple. She worked in the business office for 26 years and taught Sunday school for 50 years. During that time, Margaret spent 41 years leading the King’s Daughters and ultimately received an award for her leadership.
When Margaret wasn’t working or teaching at her church, she could be found crocheting afghans for the Children’s Hospital. She also enjoyed listening to hymns and spending time with her family. In fact, her proudest moments always included seeing her family at the yearly family reunion.
On November 7, 2019, Margaret passed into the loving arms of her Savior where she joins her husband, Robert. They will be dearly missed by all their family and friends.
A visitation for Margaret will be held Thursday, November 21, 2019 from 5:00pm to 8:00pm at Olinger Chapel Hill Mortuary, 6601 South Colorado Blvd, Centennial, CO 80121.
