Our beloved Wife, Mom, Rara and friend passed away at home on June 29th, 2025, surrounded by her loving family and friends. Margaret was born March 7,1942 in Morris, MN. Shortly after her birth, her family relocated to Spokane WA where she spent her childhood.

In 1960 Margaret moved to Riverside, CA where she met her beloved husband, Larry. They married soon after and continued their love story until Larry’s passing in 2006. Margaret dedicated 28 years to the Riverside County District Attorneys office as a Senior Legal Transcriber.

She served the Lord in various ministries including parish council, and as a Eucharistic minister at Queen of Angels Church along with multiple roles on various committees and boards for Queen of Angels parish. Margaret served her beloved Catholic church as a Consecrated Lay Missionary of the Divine Word. She joined in 2009 and actively participated in the movement, inspiring many with her faith. She enjoyed volunteering and working at Kairos Catholic Store in Riverside alongside her devoted Lay Missionary community where her legacy and impact of her testimony affected countless lives.

Beyond work and volunteering, Margaret was passionate about her family, friends and she loved to travel. Although she has traveled to many far places, her favorite local destination was the casino!
