In the early seventies, I started working in the Radiology Department at Cobb Hospital. A few years later, Margaret was hired as a X-ray Technologist. It wasn't hard to be friends with Margaret. She seemed to always look on the bright side of life... always smiling... unless she heard something sad, then tears would flood those big beautiful eyes! She had a heart so big and so full of love for all she came in contact with. We were both pregnant with our first babies at the same time. Her first was Greg... a month later I delivered my first. Not long after I had delivered she needed someone to watch Greg for an hour or two in the mornings. When Margaret finished her night shift she came to my house which was never a grab and run. I would make her breakfast and we would sit and talk for an hour or so about life and what the future held for us both. We occasional had tears but mostly there was laughter. She was always there when you needed someone, especially when death or hardship came. Margaret lived through so much sadness and heartache herself. She always handled each situation very bravely.,, even the death of Greg at age 5. Life marched on and she adopted Alan and Stephen whom she loved dearly.. Then she once again found love in Brian. She was so very happy Brian! What a wonderful life mate you were to her. My heart breaks for the loss of such a precious lady. She loved life and lived it to the fullest. I shall never forget Margaret and all she meant to me. Rest in peace my dear friend! Susan Ford
