Margaret Lucille Brick, age 99 ½ passed away peacefully on March 17, 2014 surrounded by her family. Margaret was 100% Irish and loved celebrating St. Patrick’s Day, so it was a special day to celebrate her life. She was born on September 22, 1914 in Seaforth, MN to Humphrey James Sullivan and Mary Margaret Dooner. In 1940, she married James Robert Brick (deceased) of Green Isle, MN. They had 4 children, Mary (Jim) Ziemer, Patricia (Alan, deceased) Berg, Robert (Anne) Brick and Michael (Nancy) Brick. She was blessed with 11 grandchildren, Colleen, Patrick, Briana, Molly, Erin, Kari, Ryan, Philip, Kayla, Shannon and Amber, and 5 great grandchildren Sarah, Bryce, Braden, Tanner and Emmet. Margaret’s first love was teaching. She received her teaching degree from Mankato State College in 1933 and received her B.S. in Elementary Education from Mankato State College in 1971. In addition to her husband James, she is preceded in death by her parents, her brothers James, Francis and Vincent, her grandson John Paul, and many extended family members. The family extends their gratitude to the many friends and family members who supported her throughout the years and particularly in the last two years when she experienced many changes in her health. A special thank you to the staff at Jones Harrison Care Center for their kindness and care of our dear mother and grandmother. We celebrate her life, her legacy and the inspiration she was to so many. Visitation on Sun., 3/23, 5-7PM at Wulff Woodbury Funeral Home, 2195 Woodlane Dr., Woodbury.
