To Moe and family we all lost a beautiful soul. I remember her when she was the first woman with the police in this town. Will miss all the decorations she would put up for Christmas. Maggie was a good soul and will be remembered by so many. Heaven gained another angel.
The first time I met Maggie I was a teenager and my uncle Doug had just rented a room in her home. She told me I could call her granny, I said no. Without hesitation or pause I followed with, Imma call you auntie, Auntie Maggie. Little did I know how true that was going to become.
To Moe, Eileen, Tom, Arthur, Kathy, Jeannine and families, I cannot find the appropriate words other than I am so sorry for your loss. I will miss our conversations in Maggie's decorated home or outside in her cozy "she- shed". She shared a wealth of information with me about Ludlow and its history. And of many people including my Mom and father-in-law. I loved her and she loved me because we continually expressed it in our conversations or texts. She was kind, caring and a very interesting lady sometimes coming out with the darndest things. I just enjoyed her as a person and our friendship will be deeply missed. Mags, I know we will meet again. (Thanks for painting my cow for me; something to remember you by.)
To the Lavoie and Fuller family, My deepest and heartfelt condolences. I remember Maggie decking all out for Christmas. My brothers and sisters as well as myself would walk down to see it while christmas caroling. She always smiled. Even when I saw her 5 months ago. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Dear Mag My life will certainly not be the same without you. I spent every Fri eve for many years with you and Doug , laughing , dinner, discussions and Movies ! I was always glad I lived close when it was time to go home. I will miss you always. Love u. Pat
