Miss Margaret was a Veteran of the United States Marines, and was an active member of the Calvary Tabernacle Assembly of God at Grayson. She was most recently employed by J & K Drug in Columbia, and prior to that she worked for Caldwell Memorial Hospital, Caldwell Home Health, and the Caldwell Health Department. She enjoyed working in her yard, rummaging at flea markets looking for salt and pepper shakers to add to her collection, also fishing, sharing coffee with her friends, taking annual sister trips, and spending time with her family.
