Margaret married the love of her life when she was 19. She attended Ball State and received her Bachelor Degree of Education. She taught for several years before she went back to IU and received her Doctorate of Education. She taught for over 20 years in Wayne Township and was a professor for student teachers at IUPUI for several years after that. During this time she had 3 children and as a family they loved to vacation and go boating and waterskiing. She loved nothing more than to spend time with her family.
Margaret greatly loved her family and was greatly loved by them. She was a strong Christian woman who had great faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. She is now celebrating in the presence of Him and all the family and friends that were there waiting for her in Heaven. We will miss her everyday until we are reunited!
