Died 11 July 2026Posted 14 July 2026

Peacefully on Saturday, 11 July 2026; aged 88. Cherished wife of Grahame (deceased), adored mother of Grant, Bruce, Suzy and their partners, grandmother to Lachlan. Much loved sister and sister-in-law of Allan and Eileen, Trevor and Anne (deceased), Diane, and extended families. Special friend of Carolyn Simmonds. Margaret was a joyous and kind person who had an immense love of floral and garden design; she also had a wicked, dry sense of humour that many will recall fondly – bless her. The family would like to thank the team at Kandahar in Lansdowne for the wonderful care and dignity provided to Margaret.

A private service was held for Margaret on Saturday 11th July.
