Margaret was a devout Christian and true prayer warrior. There was nothing that she loved more than being with her family and attending church. Even though she wasn’t born a Cook, for the past 75 years she has been one of the best taking that name literally. She loved cooking for her family, friends and her church. She also loved to crochet beautiful afghans.
Greeting everyone with her beautiful smile, she was an inspiration to all. She will be missed.
