I will always remember your mother with great fondness. I haven’t visited CB very often after I left in 1988, however I did see her several times since then and even my wife was fortunate enough to meet Margaret at her home quite a few years back. My wife still remarks how wonderful Margaret was, and of course she cant forget her pies. She convinced us to sample several that day, and I am not sorry that we did. Margaret remains unbeaten in the kitchen. My wife only met her the one time but she has never forgotten Margaret ‘s kindness. She had such great warmth it’s a wonder she needed an oven at all.
Life is kind of like a movie that you love where in the end they spoil it by showing you your favorite characters many years later when time has taken away some of the power and spark of the story. I wish we could hold only the memories of how great the movie was without any thought of things ever changing. My childhood story is rich with great New Waterford ladies like Margaret, Nellie Hanes and others. People who would have gotten an Oscar for their performance, except they were never acting. Margaret was real and true, honest and caring, with a smile that turned her home into a place you just wanted to curl up in. I can only imagine how much and how many people she touched, and I count myself blessed beyond what I deserve for having known her.
Passing along condolences seems a poor gesture for the years of warmth Margaret offered the Sharpe family, but I guess at these times what more can we say.
What a wonderful, wonderful lady.
Jeff Sharpe on behalf of the Sharpe Family

I offer my condolences to Margaret’s family, and to her friends. She was one of the sweetest ladies in our town, always a great pleasure to meet & share a few words. Many people in our neighbourhood benefited from her talents and kindness. I will remember her with fondness.

My darling mother-in-law, you were more of a 'third' mother to me.Since I was 16 yrs. Old, you looked out for me.Anytime I'd
Go to New Waterford to visit with Mel, you cooked for me, fed me the most delicious meals, taught me how to remove and reverse a shirt collar,tried to teach me how to make biscuits(still can't).There are so many things I 'm missing about you, too many to write so I'll keep them, beside you,
In my heart.Love forever.
