Marguerite lived most of her life in Lively and Sudbury raising her family and being an active member of the local CWL, Girl Guides of Canada, Seniors Groups, and various charitable organizations. She is fondly remembered as “Margie” to all the children she babysat over the years. In addition to her daily walks, she especially loved skating and cross-country skiing, and of course getting dressed up to go dancing! In her later years she loved going out for a coffee with her family and friends. The family would like to acknowledge the staff of Carefree Lodge for their compassionate care, especially the Main Level Health Care Team.
