Margaret spent most of her life raising and enjoying her family in their family homestead in Oak Bay NB. She was a member of the UCW and the Home & School for many years where she kept a close eye on her family. She enjoyed watching her children play sports and the many family camping trips while enjoying the horse races.

Margaret always looked forward to her summers when family would gather for potluck dinners and all the stories being told around the fire.

Due to COVID 19 restrictions, a celebration of Margaret’s life will be held at a later date.

For those who wish, remembrances to the Oak Bay Cemetery, Heart & Stoke Foundation or a charity of one’s choice would be appreciated. Condolences may be sent to the family online at www.mehanfuneralhome.ca
