Our dear Mother, Grandmother (and Great Grand), Sister, Aunt and beloved friend passed peacefully on Sunday February 10th surrounded by family. Margaret passed away 30 years to the day that her beloved husband Charlie O’Connell passed and is now together with him, her parents and sister in Heaven.
Margaret was born in Brooklyn New York in 1934 and lived in Greenpoint Brookyn until 1973 when she moved her family to Flushing NY. She lived for a short time in Dix Hills, Long Island before moving to Henderson NV in 1999.
Margaret leaves behind her four children – Margaret (John) Babnik of Upper St Clair PA, Carol O’Connell of Las Vegas NV, Stephen (Ingrid) O’Connell of Raleigh NC and Susanne O’Connell of Boston MA. She also leaves nine grandchildren – Jan Senna, TJ Herman, Abby O’Connell, Christina Oliva, Stephen O’Connell, Michael Oliva, Anna Kate Babnik, Charles O’Connell and Diana Oliva - and two great grandchildren -- Austin O’Connell and Charles Montemayor.
Margaret will always be remembered for her gentle (but direct) manner, great intelligence, never ending inquisitiveness & love of family. God could not be luckier to have her.
RIP – Margaret O’Connell 1934-2019
