Margaret loved traveling the world visiting her kids and grandkids which were spread out from Oregon, Idaho, California, Guam, Montana and Alaska.
She was a very creative and talented tole painter, which became one of her passions. She would paint on any surface provided to her from wood, plaster to metal. She also loved sewing and making jean quilts for all her kids and grandkids.
Margaret leaves behind 7 sons and 2 daughters, Perry (Anne), Rod (Cindy), Ken (Cathy), Don (Jackie), Joan, David (Tami), Todd (Sabra), Dianna and Paul (Debbie). In addition, she leaves several grandchildren and great grandchildren, too numerous to count, as she would say with a laugh. She will be missed by her many friends as well.
