Margaret’s love of God, her church, and her large loving family were her guiding lights. She was an active, life long member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Norfolk. Margaret was easygoing and fun-loving! She loved to read, play cards and bingo. She never turned down the opportunity to (go) fishing, crabbing, traveling, and shopping. Basically to GO anywhere! She was a good friend to many.

The family would like to especially thank Dr. Catherine Dalton, who lovingly cared for her for many years.
