Margaret Grace Mclennan

Do not stand by my grave and weep

I am not there; I do not sleep.

I am thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow,

I am sun on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there; I did not die.

Margaret Grace (Pike) McLennan passed away peacefully on February 29, 2016 in Vernon, BC. In her fulfilled life, Margaret travelled many miles, touching everyone that she met along the way. Her legacy lives on through her family, including a daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughters. Margaret was born in Piapot, Saskatchewan. At a young age she moved with her mother and sisters to Vancouver, where she got married and lived in Burnaby, then lived on Vancouver Island for a short time before retiring to Vernon. Anyone that knew Margaret, knew that she loved three things almost as much as her family: gardening, baking, and coffee. We love you GG and will know you’re there when the flowers are blooming in the Spring time.

By request, there will be no service held, and in lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation in memory of Margaret at www.heartandstroke.com.

Arrangements under the direction of Vernon Funeral Home, Vernon, BC.
