I am so very sorry for your loss. Please find comfort in God's sure promise of a resurrection as set forth in the Bible. (Consider Acts 24:15; John 5:28,29) Those who are raised to life will have the prospect of never again being subjected to misery, sickness, or death. (Revelation 21:4) I hope that reflecting on these thoughts will give you some relief during this difficult time.

My deepest sympathy to Aunt Margaret's family at this difficult time. My mother was Joyce Galinet; I remember our visits to Elkhart as a child, the good food and cookies. My goodness but the photo is just as I remember her so long ago.

Sorry I can't be there tomorrow , but I will be thinking of all of you. Margaret was a special lady....
she and my mom had some good times together. She was so proud of her family. It was great that she could spend her later years so near to you. Take care of each other and enjoy the many happy memories you have of times spent with her.

Aunt Margaret was an outstanding person to all that knew her.Our sympathy to Larry and Pat. Also Peg and Barb. Whenever we made a trip to Indiana there was always a trip to see and enjoy talking with her. What a great lady, she will be missed by many.

We are really sad to hear of Margaret's passing. She will be really and greatly missed! She was like
a second Mom to me; my Mother (Marie Bruckert) and her were friends for more than 94 years!
But am glad that she is now with her lord and that my son Daniel and I made it back to Elkhart
last July to help her celebrate her 100th! We will miss her chocolate-chip cookies and all her other
great cooking! Am sharing a picture of Margaret and Marie together at 6 years dressed in their
older brother's and sister's clothes. We really miss you, Margaret!

Margaret played a big part in our lives especially after she married Kenny. Dave and I and our youngest two kids made the trip often to their trailer for an evening of supper and cards. Kenny loved my roast beef and so they would come up to TR and I would cook. After Kenny passed away, I would go every other Tuesday to Elkhart and take her grocery shopping. Back then we both loved to shop for bargains. Then we eat and play "Skiip-bo" all afternoon. My mother had passed away, and so even though Margaret was Dave's aunt, she became like a second mother to me. I've cherished her for many years and will continue to cherish her memory. I'm so grateful that two of my children and all four grandchildren got to see her just last year. What a blessing that we got to have her in our lives for so long. And, like every one else who knew her, we consumed tons of her cookies. Our love and good wishes go out to Larry, Pat and the girls. I know how much you will miss her. Just know we are thinking of you and wishing we could be there. One thing I know is that we will see her again.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss but we know to be absent from the body is to be with the Lord and that is where Margaret is, enjoying His Glory. John 14 says "Let not your heart be troubled". Our thoughts and prayers are with Margaret's family
