Margaret Dawson

Beloved wife of Rick. Loving step-mother of Michael (Gillian) and David (Elysia). Cherished grandma of Ily. She is predeceased by her parents Michael and Helen Wazny, and siblings Ron and Norma. She will be dearly missed by her in-laws Barbara and Joe, nieces Kim and Kelly, nephew Jason, cousins and friends Maureen, Gail and Ann.

Margaret was an avid traveler, she explored the world with enthusiasm and curiosity. Her journeys took her to remarkable places, including China, Hong Kong, Australia, and over 25 cruises spanning the globe. She especially cherished her visits to Naples, Florida, returning time and again over the years.

She touched the lives of everyone she met and remained thoughtful and kind in her final moments. Her strength and resilience stayed with her to the very end.

Special thank you to Diane, Jane, Chris and brother-in-law Joe for their endless support and also to Louise, Lenore, Deborah and Barb for their prayers.

Many thanks to the staff at Juravinski Hospital and St. Peter’s Hospice for their compassionate care.
