I am so sorry for your loss. It is my prayer that the Lord will bless you abundantly with comfort, strength and peace during your bereavement.  Margaret and I graduated in the class of 1966 from the Historic Roosevelt High School. She was a very sweet person and she will be missed.

Debbye R Raing and Family

It is still hard to process that I won’t see Mrs. Cantrell’s smiling face coming down the hallway at Lincoln this year when we make our way back to campus. In my three years as a part of the Lincoln family, I came to know her as a true friend, and enjoyed sharing the ups and downs of partnering with her to support the school based team over the last year. 

She was a caring, thoughtful, and genuine person whose love for, and impact on others, was so easy to see. She often referred to both students and colleagues as her babies, and was rarely without a smile. She met challenges with grace, and was the kind of person who would make sure to mail birthday cards to colleagues while school campuses were closed, or send a text just to see how things were going, and never forgot to tell people that she loved and appreciated them. 

Her family and all those who came to know and love her are in my prayers. I hope that in moments of sadness, memories of her smile and the beautiful person that she was may be of comfort. 💜

Sending my sincere condolences to the family and loved ones of Mrs. Cantrell.  I had the pleasure of working with this beautiful lady for 12 years and she was always pleasant. I will definitely miss her warm hugs, hearing her say, "I love you.", the and her texts at every holiday and on my birthday 💖.

I pray God's strength to all those who knew and loved Mrs. Cantrell; and that the moments and memories with her live on.

Peace and blessings to you all.



Dear Mr. Cantrell,

That picture captures exactly who she was; warm, kind, loving, sincere, dedicated and genuine!  She loved Jesus, others and then herself - always caring about the students and her co-workers before herself!

Be confident in knowing that she is resting in the arms of Jesus and watching over you!

May God be with the family at this time of bereavement.  Sorry for your loss, my prayers are with you.  God Bless!

You were such an important part of our Lincoln family. We will miss you dearly, but will forever remember your gentle spirit. 



So sorry for your lost, my condolences to the entire Cantrell Family especially John,  Shelia, Jordan and Jakela Cantrell. Love you Sister Lisa

To The Cantrell Family

With all my deepest sympathy, I am really hurt to hear the passing of Mrs. Cantrell, she was a very beautiful person inside and out, her spirit was so humble , I never can say I've seen her in a negative spirit it was always positive, she was one person that I can talk to and she will listen , she was like a mother figure to me and very special, I've been crying on the inside every since I got the news about her ,I will never for get her and she definitely will be miss, every time I will think about her and when my tears reach it fullness, I will drop a tear of memory.
                                                                                                   Rest In Peace, My Love

I was very shocked and hurt to hear of Margaret’s passing.  I worked with her for over 20 years and we because very close. I was the matron of honor in her wedding. I will truly miss her. Rest in eternal peace my friend. My sincere condolences to you James and family. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

I know Margaret was loved very much and will be sadly missed. I love you guys and lift you in prayer that the holy spirit will comfort you as you adjust to the new life without her. I really wish we didn't have this distancing situation right now. Support each other and trust God to come through because he handles all things and be wise to acknowledge him and give praise for another day to make things right.  Align yourself with his plan because his plan is always the right one. Much love from Cousin Helen (the teacake maker)

To the family, I send my sincere heartfelt love and prayers of comfort and peace at this difficult time. It has taken me a moment to gather my thoughts and emotions surrounding the lost of such an icon. An icon is what Ms. Cantrell is for the field of Education. She has made such an impact in and on the lives of students, families, and the staff members that had the privilege of meeting her and/or the honor of working with her. The things I will remember the most is her large million dollar smile, her incredible heart, and her encouraging words that helped to make everything better (at least doable). No matter how she was feeling, Ms. Cantrell always put others first. For me, she will ALWAYS be know as a "Champion" for others and a "Warrior" within Education for   ALL.  Ms. Cantrell, you have made a tremendous impact on my life professionally and personally.  You have now transitioned from our angel on earth, to our guardian angel that will SOAR forever amongst the heavens looking down on us all.  Our Lincoln family will never be the same, however we will move forward so you can continue to smile.  Much LOVE always ❤

Our condolences to your family and friends. Praying that God will comfort you and give you peace during this sorrowful time. 

With deepest sympathy,

James and Hattie Dupree

To the family,  I am so sorry to hear about Margaret.  I worked with her for many years at Bellsouth. She was a very nice person . Condolences and prayers for all.
 


Hi James and all of the family. This is Kerri Weiner (work roommate).  Mrs. Cantrell was so much fun to be around and we shared many laughs. She joked around with me on a daily basis and we kept each other happy. We had lunch together most days and talked about Sonny and the family often. She was proud of the family.  She was a hardworking lady and was always giving good advice. She was a great listener and told me that since my mom passed she would take over the role of Mom. I will miss her terribly.  I am sorry I will not be able to attend the services due to previous engagements out of town. Love you all, Kerri Weiner! 
She would say “love me some Weinie”

I was shocked and disbelief was my first reaction.  Then I heard Mrs. Cantrell's voice in my head saying "Hello beautiful" and the tears came rolling down.  Angels do walk on earth and you are an example of an Angel.  God has called you home and though we will miss you here on earth, I know that my father has a better place for you.  

You have touched so many people in a positive way and I know that your spirit will be felt every day.  To the family, I send my prayers, love, and condolences in your time of loss.

May God bless and keep you through this difficult time.

Mrs. Cantrell,
Always had a beautiful smile and kind words for all students and teachers. I had the pleasure of working with her as both educators at Lincoln Elementary School. She was my mentor full of life with words of wisdom. Everytime she saw me in the hallways she would say hey Beautiful those words of kindness  always lifted my spirits. May God strengthen her husband that was always at the school to support her and the family in this time of sorrow. May God welcome Margaret Cantrell another angel to the Kindgom of heaven. Rest In Peace Beautiful🤗

My condolences to the family of Mrs. Cantrell. Mrs. Cantrell and I worked together for four years. You  always had a smile for me and greeted me with: “Hello beautiful!”
You always listened and offered words of wisdom to me and anyone who needed it. You were always positive, and dedicated your life to children. You loved to teach them, but also to spoil them! 😃 Both students and teachers were happy in your presence. 
Mrs. Cantrell, rest in peace. You will be missed. 💖


I could always expect and smile and a “How you doing baby” as we walked the halls of Lincoln Elementary, especially after I found out she worked with my mother years ago!
Mrs Cantrell was a wonderful teacher and that was evident in how excited our students would be to see her! When she would pick them up to work with them, they would always come back with their hug and their brown paper bag full of treats!
My prayers and condolences go out to the Cantrell Family. 




Mrs Cantrell ALWAYS had a smile on her face & was so sweet. I remember her contagious smile & how she would always tell me how pretty my hair was. Although I only worked at Lincoln with her for 1 school year & a few months into the next, she had one of those personalities you’ll never forget. Blessings & condolences to her family. ❤️🙏🏾😘

To the Cantrell Family:

I send my  prayers  and. sincere  condolences.🙏🏾

In memory of Mrs. Cantrell-. BK A. “Auntie”

This is such a shocker!
When I   first met Mrs. Cantrell at Lincoln Elementary. - 12 years ago
She was very intelligent and eager to learn on a professional level.
She cared about her students . She was dedicated, enthusiastic and compassionate about teaching.  I appreciate her efforts in making sure all kids got an equal opportunity to learn.   These are  traits I noticed instantly.

Mrs . Cantrell   was vey helpful,, when I was unsure of what I needed to do . she would advise me . She treated me kind and no matter what I needed she made sure I got it,
She was like an Aunt  to me.
Thank you for being there when I needed an advisor and helping hand.

I’m truly going to miss  your friendship , smile,    humor, boldness ,  words of wisdom,  and the times we shared  at Lincoln and away from Lincoln. 


Love ya!!
❤️🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾❤️
Sleep in Peace. (Auntie)

Mrs. Cantrell,
You will always be remembered for the giant smile that was always on your face. Over the 5 years that we have worked together, you have made a lasting impression on me. 
Your dedication to the well-being of our students is something that I wish was more common. You inspired me to do better, to reach for more and to always to smile and spread cheer to others. I will miss out conversations and greetings each morning, but know that you will always be smiling down.

Margaret was like a big sister to us and we will miss her dearly. We will continue to lift her husband, James up in prayer!
God Bless,

My condolences to the family of Mrs. Cantrell who was like a mother to me. She was one of the sweetest people I knew. During my time at Lincoln; if at any time I needed encouragement her classroom is where you’d find me. If I was unhappy she would say the right words to get me through. I will miss our chats and the time we spent outside of work for lunch or dinner. Take your rest Mrs. Cantrell your work here is done. Until we meet again I love you.❤️

I will miss you tremendously mama Cantrell from the moment I stepped on Lincoln’s campus you treated me like I was your own . Thank you for everything and I will miss that smile more than ever! I love you💙

My condolences to Margaret’s family. She was such a hard worker who always had a smile or kind word for everyone she came across, no matter what her day was like.  She always made a point to recognize a birthday of a co-worker or reach out if she knew you were struggling.  A true teacher who gave her all for her students.... she will be sorely missed.  Rest In Peace, Margaret. 💜🙏
