Margaret was a lifelong member of the Methodist Church and attended on a regular basis, her faith was very important to her. After retiring from the Good Samaritan Home, she and Gail enjoyed traveling with her cousin and her husband to various places around the country. She always tried to make it to as many of her grandchildren's school events and sports games as possible. She loved planting flowers and always did a fantastic job of taking care of those. She absolutely loved her Nebraska Cornhuskers both football and Volleyball. She knew everything about the players and could reel off the stats on every single player. We knew better than to interrupt her when she was watching her sports and she rarely missed watching any games.
Most of all she enjoyed being around her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, the more the merrier. They will always remember going to Grandma's house, the chance to be with all their cousins, Mom/grandma's house was the hub of every holiday get together, the glue that held our big crazy family together. She was always there for all of us, no matter what. She also enjoyed visits and phone calls from nieces and nephews.
