Condolence From: Lorraine Hackenbrook
Condolence: Jackie and family, please accept our condolences in the loss of Margaret. She was such a lovely lady and tried to teach our son, Bill, a song for one of his plays in little theatre and was successful in the 5 week time frame. A miracle in itself.
She was always so pleasant. May she Rest In Peace. Blessings, Ken and Lorraine

Condolence: I will remember the laughter we shared, the silliness we giggled over, your wardrobe of fabulous gowns, your formidable talent as you piloted that big old musical 747.
And yes, we had our disagreements and spats but you were an irrepressible personality......impossible to remain chagrined with you!
Margaret Jean, you are and always will be a STAR and I will be listening for some great show tunes to come dancing down from above......then I'll know that you and the 747 are re-united and that your heart and pizzaz play on and on and on.
Cheerio, old pal and thank you for all of the memories.

Condolence From: Paul & Janis Nelson, Beaverton
Condolence: Marg was one of the first people we met when we purchased our Beaverton home more than 16 years ago. As an immediate neighbour we visited/interacted often, and we were always influenced by her happy, positive outlook. She even recruited us to fill out her Christmas Choir a few years ago at her Brechin Church; brave woman indeed !! Rest well Margaret; may God watch over, bless and comfort you and your loved ones !

Condolence: I am so sorry to hear of Margaret's passing. I enjoyed sharing worship with Margaret when I conducted pulpit supply at Brechin United Church. She lived out her faith through her ministry of music which she shared with everyone.
Keeping her family close in thought and prayer.

Condolence From: Patti Weir
Condolence: Dear Jim, Karen, Greg, Jackie, and families.....Margaret Jean was a huge part of our family and she was such a talent. She grew up as dad's neighbour and was a good family friend. Her enthusiasm for music and show tunes was so evident in all of the plays, Lions Shows, and musicals that she and mom put on over the years. She could play anything. They worked well together and created a community in the churches, the Lions Club of Pefferlaw and the Town Hall in Beaverton. Marg will be dearly missed by you all. Take good care of one another, tell great stories, sing a show tune or two, and smile. She is in heaven now playing some tunes and telling everyone how proud she is of her family. God Bless. Sincerely and with love, Patti Weir

Condolence: Marg will be greatly missed by all of us at Brechin United Church specially those of us who sang in the choir. She loved to keep us on our toes and helped us do the best we could, each and every Sunday!
Our Sundays will never be the same again. Please accept our thoughts and prayers as everyone adjusts to a life without this amazing, fun and talented woman.
