Maggie was loved by all. She was a remarkable woman and a true inspiration. She made everyone feel special, with her genuine interest in others, her warmth, and her kind, loving nature. It was such a gift to have Maggie in our lives for so long, sharing her wonderful memories, stories, wit and humour.

In her 97 years, Maggie lived a full life, enjoying summers at Mink Lake and winters in J.I., Vero Beach, Florida. She loved her golf, bridge, skiing and she travelled the world. Maggie also enjoyed reading, knitting, lunching with friends, watching birds, music, theatre and spending time with family. Her sense of style, daisies and the colour yellow were ‘signature’ Maggie. Each morning, she looked forward to solving her 5 letter word puzzle. Her curiosity and positivity were enjoyed by everyone she met.

Maggie was truly one of a kind, who lived her life with Flexibility, Acceptance, Forgiveness, Love and Hope. We will miss her beautiful spirit every day, and her legacy will live on.

Maggie and the family wish to thank the caring ‘gals’ who looked after her in her home, with such affection and kindness. We also wish to thank her wonderful family doctor and the amazing doctors, nurses and volunteers at Hospice Peterborough, who cared for Maggie with such compassion and warmth, touching her heart and bringing her many joyful moments.

To honour Maggie, donations to Hospice Peterborough would be gratefully appreciated. Flowers are graciously declined.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
