She was truly a great Wife, Mother, Grandmother, and friend; these feeling I know are shared by many others in the family and everyone who was blessed to know her. Aunt Margret was a life long mentor for me. Sometimes the hardest thing for a child to do is to talk with his own parents. She was always there for Billy and I and helped pave the way. She was much more than an Aunt, but a second Mother. Tommy, Billy, and I were raised like brothers in lieu of cousins and I will remember and miss her as my own mother.
