Margaret Anderson spent most of her life in her home on Ridgeway Street with her husband Duane (Dewey) and her son Bruce. She was a busy lady filling her time with volunteer work, cooking, baking, sewing, & gardening. She had a strong faith and was a member of Calvary Lutheran Church. She volunteered in the church office for many years, was a member of several of the Church groups and attended services regularly. Margaret also volunteered at Grandview Lodge & Meals on Wheels.

When Bruce & Debbie brought grandchildren into her life she was overjoyed. She entertained them with sleepovers, shopping trips and lots of love. She was very proud of Kim and Kevin and was able to see them grow up to be adults.

Family was extremely important to her. She was very close to her brother John and her sister Mildred and their families. She had a special relationship with friends Pat & Dom Margarit and all their children. Marg & Dewey travelled with Pat & Dom to some wonderful resorts in Mexico and Hawaii. They treasured these trips and had many memories (and photos) to prove it.

Many a summer was spent at camp at Birch Beach. Lots of special memories were made for her son, her nieces and nephews and the Margarit clan from Minneapolis.

Her nephew Bobby Patridge (Donna), John Patridge, her nieces, Patti Lee (Alex), Susan Arnold (Greg), Karen Von Batsch (Fritz) and their families. She also leaves behind her special friend Sharron Forshaw who was a blessing to Margaret for many years.
