Margaret HARTE

STUDER, Margaret (Margie) Margaret Harte Studer, known to all as Margie, passed away in Ottawa on Saturday, August 11, after a short illness. She was just shy of her 87th birthday. Loving and beloved wife for 47 years of the late G/C (Ret.) H.R. Studer, remembered with pride and affection by sons David (Susan Bishop), Michael (Alicia Mulak) and Peter (Gillian) and by grandchildren Christopher and Paola, Nicholas and Stephanie, and Erica and Ashton. Predeceased by sister Catherine and brother Philip, she is mourned by many nieces and nephews and legions of warm friends. This resilient daughter of Glace Bay, N.S. rose to all challenges: raising three sons, quarterbacking countless military moves, starting a successful career in her 50s. Comfortable among brass and regular folk alike, she was ever true to her own golden rule: "Do good unto others, regardless." Per her wishes, interment immediate family only. A memorial reception will be held Friday August 24, from 2 to 4 p.m., in the Burgundy Room, mezzanine level of The Chateau Laurier, Ottawa. Charitable donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Published in the Ottawa Citizen from 8/17/2007 - 8/18/2007
