Yesterday

Margaret was our next door neighbour in Oxted and we were very fortunate to know her. She had such a gentle and kind way about her and we recall her love and warmth when speaking of her family. I recall my daughters being involved in a children´s party at Richard and Margaret´s and their excitement at being involved. I picked up the tip of making jelly filled orange segments for small people parties after that!
Margaret moved back to New Zealand to live, shortly after we came here. Gaby and Liv were so pleased when their wind band played in Christchurch and Margaret came to the concert. Olivia (Liv) was delighted to see Margaret in Holly Lea as well and remembers her so fondly.
Sending our love to all the family - please know our gratitude for knowing Margaret.
Katie, Duncan, Sophie, Liv and Gaby Burns.

Sad to hear this news, but know that dear Margaret is now in the presence of her Lord and Saviour; beyond all pain, sadness and tears. It was a privilege to share a few years of our pilgrimage.
