    Aunt Margaret will be missed. She never missed sending me a birthday card each year. I have fond memories of Springerle cookies and Christmas candy when we were kids. Thinking of you, Bert, Harold, and David.

    I was saddened to learn of Aunt Margaret’s death. I have fond memories of her as I grew up. I always asked for her at Watkins Hospital when I went to KU if I needed blood work or was in that building. I was blessed to have gotten to see her more recently when I moved back to Kansas and would stop by when I was in Lawrence. I remember her vegetable garden and her stories of animals trying to share in the crop yields! I remember some of the stories she wrote when she was in the Writer’s Club. I will miss knowing she is in the world with us. My love to you, Bert, Harold, and David. May good memories of your mother bring you comfort and God’s Peace.
