Margaret graduated from St. Catherine High School in 1952 and went on to do many different jobs through the years. Through steady dedication and a strong work ethic, she ultimately worked for many years as a bookkeeper at Unisys, formerly known as Burroughs, before retiring.
Margaret lived life with quiet courage and an open-hearted spirit. She found deep joy in time spent with family, and her kindness was felt in the steady, thoughtful ways she showed up for the people she loved. With a faithful heart and the wisdom that comes from a life fully lived, she carried herself with grace through every season.
An adventurous soul, Margaret embraced the outdoors and the thrill of trying something new. She loved boating when she could and had enjoyed fishing from an early age. She was also known for her daring side in speed skating, and she took to downhill skiing as well—pursuits that reflected her boldness, strength, and willingness to meet life with confidence.
Margaret was the dear sister of Paul Pelletier, cherished aunt to her nieces and nephews, and many more great nieces and nephews. She was also the longtime friend of Susan and Brack Moss among numerous other adventurous friendships. She was preceded in death by her parents, Hector and Lena Pelletier; her brother, George Pelletier; and her sister, Cecile Prusaitis.
