Mrs. Margaret Baxter Smith

(nee Symington)

September 2, 1925 - June 23, 2021.

Mom was born and raised in Port Coquitlam where

she lived until she met Dad, George Lawrence

Smith her beloved husband of 61 years who

predeceased her in 2011. They moved to Burnaby

to raise their family. Mom was always there to lend

a helping hand, like when her daughters wanted to

join Brownies and they needed someone to form a

new group so Mom became a Tawny Owl. When

her girls wanted to play softball, she became a

coach. Mom would always be in the stands

cheering proudly watching her girls run track.

When Dad retired, they moved to Port Coquitlam

so they could be near the new arriving grandchildren

and great grandchildren who she was so proud of

and adored. Mom could be found in the arena

watching ringette, hockey, and lacrosse and in the

gym watching basketball.

She is survived by her daughters Sandra (Dale),

Elaine (Stephen) grandchildren; Derek (Shanna)

Drake, Dax, Lachlan, Crew, Rebecca (Bruce)

Greenlee, Keen, and Bowen, Jill-Jada, Peggi (James)

Meghan, Lowen, and Addy, David (Danielle) Aubrey,

Robert(Melissa) Jared, Layne. Mom is now with her

beloved husband (George Lawrence) and all her

dogs and grand dogs.

Rest in peace our dear sweet mother,

we love you and we will miss you.
