(nee Brooks) Finally released her hold on life on Victoria Day, Monday, May 19th, 2003, in her 85th year, after a lengthy struggle with COPD. Born in Coventry, England, in 1918, she followed her husband to Canada when WWII ended. Predeceased by her beloved partner of 49 years, Rowland William (Bill), and her little sister, 'Babe' (the late Ken Heayes), she is survived by her older sister, Dulcie (the late Kenneth Hyde), who remains in England along with other family members. Her daughters, Sandra June and Marguerite Anne, will cherish the memory of her sweet smile, clear blue eyes, and soft hands. Her grandchildren, Shari (Ivan Cragg), Liette (George Lakins), and Wendy (Steve Nolan) will miss their Nana, and her great-grandchildren (Shaun, Jason, Mallory, Colin, Megan, and Mark) will miss their G-G. Margo will be greatly missed by Gudrun and Klaus Gottlob, along with their children Sylvia (Doug McHough), Marion (Andre Martel), and Sandy (Alan Labonte), and their grandchildren. Margo made friends wherever she went. She was a caring listener, with a quick intellect, and a lively sense of humour. She will be mourned by her special friend, Paul Orr; her friends Maurice Wright and Karen Whillans; and the Ribbon Club at Richmond Park Square. She touched the lives of those she met through her life in Manordale; the trailer at Pinewood near Cobden; the apartment (and especially the pool!) at 1275 Richmond Road; the Kanata Retirement Residence; Good Companions; her work with OSTOP; work-outs at Curzons Carlingwood Club; the Ottawa Hospital including the Rehabilitation Centre; the stores and restaurants at Carlingwood Shopping Centre; Local Heroes on Merivale (her favourite place to shoot pool); and those who travelled with her on Para Transpo. She will be remembered for her kindness, generosity, courage, perseverance, and for her love of nature in all its forms: from butterflies to birds; fish to flowers; and elm trees to elephants. She loved being outdoors - walking, swimming, fishing, reading, gardening, and exploring - and the world was a richer place for her presence. Margo and her family deeply appreciated the quality of loving care she received at Starwood and thank both the residents and the staff. It was Margo's wish that her remains, like her husband's, be donated to the School of Anatomy at Ottawa University for medical education or research. On receipt, her ashes will be interred with Bill's, in the Columbarium at Capital Memorial Gardens. Family and friends will be invited to gather to celebrate Margo's life at a future date, to be announced. In her memory, donations may be made to The Lung Association, OSTOP, Starwood Extendicare, The Rehabilitation Centre, The Canadian Cancer Society, or a charity of your choice.
