Upon arrival she will bathe in the everlasting light of the Lord, healing her earthly body as she begins to prepare a new home for those she has left behind. Her loving brother CJ, devoted husband Connie and children Cathy, Paul, Steve, Lisa and Edward. Grandchildren, Ryan, Austin, Billy, Cara, Audrey, Jenna, Becca, Mary, Mason, Sierra, and Miranda. Great Grandchildren, Mia, Ava, Treigh, Kilen, Tristen, and Shayla. Margaret also leaves six nieces and nephews, fourteen great-nieces and great nephews, nine great-great nieces and great-great nephews, and many extended family members, and a wealth of friends to cherish her beloved memory.
In 1959, Margaret graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in Port Arthur, Texas then married her love and only soul mate in 1960. After becoming an esteemed and cherished spouse she quickly assumed the title of household CEO, CFO, Matriarch, and Master Domestic Engineer. She also held specialized degrees in spousal love, respect and affection, child development and discipline, and a culinary arts resident expert. Along with being the owner of the children mass transportation system she was also the trusted Operator of the residential station wagon where she wore a multitude of “Mom” hats; PTA Mom, Swim Mom, Den Mom, CCD Mom and neighborhood Mom to name a few.
Margaret never knew a stranger and was an honorable and devout Catholic and a Good Samaritan at heart. She was the glue of the family and the mortar of our home. Her unconditional love extended beyond her immediate family and especially cherished every moment and time she could express and love all of her Grandchildren. “What happens at Nana’s…stays at Nana’s!” All who knew her loved her dearly and will never forget her grace, charm, undying love and her care she had for each and every one of them! May she rest in peace in the presence of the Lord!
