I loved Margaret! She was an amazing cello player and we had fun in orchestra. I heard her play the organ in the Salt Lake temple many times. There was a sweetness about her that was very special! I was sorry to hear of her passing.

Even in high school I was always transfixed by Margaret's beautiful eyes and smile. I often saw her at the University Hospital when she came there is a patient. Every encounter left me feeling deep peace and even elation. She had a combination of gentleness and strength which was uncommon and inspiring.

I was Margaret's date for Junior Prom. She was a lady in every way. I enjoyed her friendship and fun personality. It was an honor to have her as a friend.
