Dear Margaret,
I’m relieved that you’re no longer in pain. I’m joyful that you’ve had a relaxed, peaceful goodbye, the music of Tchaikovsky, and Cohen playing in your room, and your beautiful angel, Veronica by your side. She has your warm, spontaneous smile, and is thoughtful, and gracious, like you.
I will always treasure my early visits with you and Veronica in Paris, then later ones joined by Michael and the kids. You welcomed me with love and kindness-–thank you! Rest now, dear Margaret; farewell.
Dear Veronica – On behalf of Michael and myself, my parents, sisters, and aunts, we offer condolences to you, Michel, Tom, et Clément, and also to Jean, Irene, Sheila, and all their families. We’re thinking of you, and praying for strength and courage during this difficult time. Love and blessings.
My growing up memories were that Margaret and Paris were synonymous. Although we also saw Margasret in England, the impressions that seemed to last were of spending time with her in Paris, maybe because she was the lone person we knew there, over such an extended period of time. To me Margaret reflected the spirit of the city- lighthearted, always on the go- seemingly keeping a full work life but definitely not that she’d let encroach on her social and personal life. She always looked completely at home in the bustling Paris cityscape- the Gare or Metro or just in the street- this was her place. My later memories from visiting Margaret during the years she was raising Veronica were she’d reached a point of contentment and fulfillment as a Mom and had centered her life around her family and her home neighborhood around Place D’Italie. She still liked going out but the spot we’d pick was more to suit the company of family and catching up on our lives. Veronica is a perfect reflection of the sunny disposition I remember in Margaret and while Veronica now has her own fantastic family, I’ll always recall Margaret when we’re with Veronica.
All our Love Michael, Sharon, Hailey, Nathan, Aiden, Jordan
