Margaret was a woman, strong in her convictions and sincere in her actions. She maintained a matriachal status with her numerous nieces and nephews who treasured her dearly.

She is survived by sister-in-law Lucie Starkovich of Virginia; 12 nieces and nephews, John "Sonny" (Donna) Raukar, Matthew (Carol) Raukar, George "Chub" Starkovich, Thomas (Shannon) Starkovich, Maryann (James) Hirsch, JoErnesta (Bruce R.)
