While working at Cunha’s Ranch Inn she met her second husband John A Jackson of Modesto. They were married for many years and traveled extensively including, Italy, China, Egypt and Mexico. She also made many trips to Maui and went on several cruises with sisters, friends, daughters and granddaughters. Margaret was a beautiful, spiffy, sparkly, and sassy lady who will be greatly missed. In addition to those wonderful qualities she was loving, generous, kind and cared deeply for her entire family. The care, love and advice she gave all her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren will live forever in their hearts.

She is survived by her son James Pogue and his wife Debby of Avery, CA, daughter Sandra Anderson of Modesto, CA. daughter Maureen Richardson of Maui, HI and one daughter Susan Jackson of Bandon, OR.
