Like Pam and Sarah, I have many, many wonderful Blue Bird and Campfire Girl memories of this gifted woman…every time I work with seed beads, I think of the beaded headbands she taught us to make. When I see dipped candles, I think of how we dipped candles in her basement. I was telling someone, just the other day about our "sit-up-on"s we made and our trip to the park at 75th and College to watch the falling stars. Yearsw ago, when my own kids were in grade school, I wanted to teach them to use leather tools, because she taught me to do it and it was FUN. I remember the incredible eggs she decorated… Mrs. Cotton, as I knew her, and Pam's Mother, our co-leader, I'm certain, have had a great impact on my artistic endeavors and my desire to teach others. May God continue to bless her family and friends, as she blessed us and now blesses us with her memories.
I have many fond memories of my always cheerful, always welcoming Blue Bird and Camp Fire Girl leader. She was a beautiful woman who made this young girl's life more interesting. My condolences to her family. I know she'll be missed greatly.

I met Margaret shortly after she married Ray, a long time friend of mine. Margaret was a wonderful intelligent person who brightened my day each time I shared time with her. She will be sorely missed by all.
I want to send my deepest condolences to Peggy's family. I had the pleasure of seeing her every week, since I did her hair. She was not only a good client, she was the finest landlord a person or business could have. She became a wonderful friend to me. She will be missed. Arlene Freeman
Our sincere sympathy to the family of Peg. We have fond memories of her (and Uncle Ray) showing such great hospitality to our family on our Florida visits. Susan Komorowski and family (Art, Arte and Lauren)
Margaret was a long-time member of the James E. Hendry Hibiscus Society. We are very appreciative of her support. Barbara Oster, vice-president/membership
