    We will remember Margaret with love and respect for a life well lived. Dr. Rollo and Margaret were true treasures in our lives. They elevated our quality of life with their intellect and kindness. We send our deepest sympathy to the Michael family.

    Our hearts here in Absecon are heavy and surround you all in prayer. Margaret was a special woman who touched our lives with that wonderful smile and twinkling in her eyes and her very strong faith. We miss both your dad and now your mom.

    I always loved how both your parents always asked me about my children. My son was in your dad's first confirmation class and always thought so much of him.
