May 9, 2025An amazingly intelligent woman who shared her gifts with all, especially the grandkids. A very welcoming and caring mother in law who not only loved me, but also the wider family (especially my mum Anna). Those two had a great bond even with the language barrier. Will be sorely missed by all.

Margaret was always friendly, who loved a chat and approached life with a smile.
As a lefty Margaret loved the challenge of golf, enjoyed the friendships made and was a wonderful & valued contributor to Moe Golf Club Ladies activities.
It saddens us all that she has gone.
Rest in Peace dear Margaret.
Love to all Pat, Rod Thompson & Family. 💐☘️My Nanna always taught me morals, like being kind and respectful to everyone and to constantly be curious, and most importantly, don’t snatch. Nanna was always delighted to take me around her hometown of Moe, whether it was the library, the park or the swimming pool. She taught me manners which my parents found evident whenever I returned from a stay at her house. She was the kindest and most loving person I knew and she was an even better Nanna. I am saddened that you will not be here to see me grow up and the impact you had on me. Love your grandson Kye

We are with you.A friendly, respected and valued member of her community who will be widely missed. Love to the Passey and O’Reilly families. Marg, you’ve earned your place in the ‘Angel Choir’.
May 15, 2025Nanna was full of love, kindness, and compassion. She was the strongest and wisest person I knew. She cared so deeply for us grandkids, always letting us be ourselves, supporting us through thick and thin, and simply being present. She was always doing activities with us, making every moment special, whether it was something big or small. The tickles, the games, the trips to the library and movies, the knitting, and just the talks about life and all the time she spent with us are memories I’ll always cherish. Nanna always took the time to listen and love. If I become even half the woman she was, I’ll consider myself incredibly fortunate. I will miss her dearly.❤️❤️
