    I remember the 1st time I met Ms Margaret. I was a yungin singing for Price Hill choir at the church bottom of Lincoln St. I thought she was sooo beautiful as she sat - by herself - quietly waiting on the service to start. I will miss talking with her. She was a special strong-willed, independent woman, mother, and grandmother.
