Uncle Bill and Steve, My prayers are with you during this time. Aunt Mary Margaret was a gracious lady and I loved her dearly. She was devoted to her faith and her family. And she wasn't a bad cook, either! :) She has many family and friends here on earth and in heaven celebrating the gift her life as been to all of us.

I am so sorry to hear of Mary Margaret's passing. I always thought so much of Mary Margaret. She was such a sweet lady. She was always my "super sub" at Ben Davis High School. I could always count on Mary Margaret to sub for teachers and the teachers loved to have her as their substitute for the day. She also was a blessing to us BDHS retirees at our monthly breakfast at Bob Evans. She was a wonderful person. Donna Weesies
