Cathy and Family,

I am very sorry to hear about the loss of your mother.  Wishing you peace, strength and courage in the days ahead.  

                             In deepest sympathy,
Linda (Wright) Gronek

Please accept my condolences.  Margaret was an active part of St. Mary's Parish during the the time I was pastor.  Her assistance was greatly appreciated.  I am sorry that I was unable to be at the funeral.

Dear Cathy,  Steve, Teresa,  Sue, and Chris (and spouses)

Your mother truly will be missed by so many people.  She was so beautiful inside and out.  Her presence expressed so much love and grace.  Every time she greeted us (the Eve girls) at Kraft Funeral Home she brought so many of our childhood memories of Holy Trinity to mind.  When visiting a lost loved one she had a way to put everyone to ease that they were in the best hands.  Most recently we had the opportunity to visit with her at St. Mary's Church after Masses that were being held in memory of our father who passed in January, 2019.  She helped our stepmother deal with her grief.  We all depended upon our visit with Margaret after Mass.  She would notice if one of the six girls was missing that particular day.  Church will not be the same without her beautiful smile.  I speak from my own heart and my sisters, we will miss her! 

With Deepest Sympathy,
Kathy "Eve" Hall 

It’s hard to think of life without Margaret in it.  What a joy she was!  She always had a smile on her face and a kind of reassuring quality to her voice when she spoke.  I always felt better after talking to her.

Margaret was a woman of great faith who loved her family and friends and knew how to have a good time.  I will truly miss her.  She was a gem.

I worked with Margaret10 years. I helped her with the LIFT program. She was the sweetest lady.  I enjoyed talking and working with her.  You will be missed

Cathy, Steve, Teresa, Sue, Chris and all of your family,
Loved your mom. Feel blessed that I got to be around her generous spirit and love of laughter. With all the wild times we had playing at your house, she was always calm and welcoming. I remember playing endless screaming games of Ghosts in the Graveyard around your house and the epic Halloween party in the barn. Sending our love. Tricia O’Connor and Steve Hall

Heaven is a little sweeter today,I met Margret thru LIFT, she was a beautiful lady inside and out, lots of fun, I will miss seeing her lovely smile. R I P my friend,

Margaret was my mother's best friend when they were growing up.  I just remember them in the kitchen giggling.  The two of them took us on vacation to an old schoolhouse one summer with all the kids.  Wow!  Great memories.  So happy to have had the chance to take her to supper last fall.  She will be missed but I'm sure there is giggling in Heaven right now!

Margaret was such a kind, generous and thoughtful lady.  I will miss her beautiful smile.   

Rest In Peace,
Katie Conley



Margaret was a wonderful woman. She always had a kind word for everyone. Her daughter Cathy and I were in the same class at Holy Trinity and Providence high school. I have many fond memories of visiting the Crone home, the wonderful picnics and the togetherness and love their family shared. Margaret welcomed everyone with open arms. Margaret was my Mother Pat Burke’s dear friend. I will be forever grateful to the love and kindness Margaret showed my Mother during her illness. There is just no one else like Margaret and my heart aches for the family. Her quiet, calm, loyal dedication will never be forgotten.  Love and prayers.

Sue and family,

Your mom was a shining example of everything good in this world. Her faith, her strength, and her love were second to none. Her kindness lit up everyplace she went. I will miss her at church and I will miss her welcoming smile.

God bless

Friends, 
I  can’t ever remember seeing Margaret without a smile. A life well lived, to be sure. 

Sincerely,
Jenifer

I miss my friend desperately, and know it doesn’t come close to your grief. Such a kind person, never a harsh word about anyone. My children never considered her a neighbor but rather an honorary aunt.  She shared all our family events large and small and is already sorely missed.
We are thinking of all the Crone extended family and I’ll be with you all in spirit on Wed.
Loved “my Margaret”.... but as she would often say, “You know”. 
Love, Kris
