I don't know if you will get this a year & 2 months later, but I surely hope so. Anita, the last time I saw you was in the mid 70s, and you were living in the log cabin. I have enough memories of us as children to write a nice plump chapter in my life stories collection. When did you move to N.C? I was looking at a picture of Myrtle & decided to Google your family. Imagine my surprise to see the article about her 99th! I waited a year too late, and now I see you lost her. I didn't know about your connection to the Rose Festival. I could have arranged to meet you during your visit there, as I have places to stay in the L.A. area. Sorry for not keeping in touch. I have lived in the country outside of Astoria, OR for 36 years, and I love it. I can be reached at 503-458-6864 or 503-338-8024. I would love to hear from you!

I visited with Loretta when we visited our grandmother, Katie Carter. I have many fond memories playing with her and Anita Frances. My sister, Susan, played with Anita. We would play dress up. Mrs. Margaret always impressed me as a wonderful mother and lady. I was really impressed with how loud she could whistle for Loretta to come home!! I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Margaret's passing. What a great life she must have had. 100 yrs!! Wow!! Loretta and Anita, I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and wishing you fond memories. Carol Wilson Norgress Warren and Nell Wilson's daughter

Loretta and Anita: Your mother was one of my favorite people in Ruston. She was always so positive and cheerful. She was kind to everyone she met. She will be missed by many people. I am thinking about all of her precious family.

Loretta, I am so sorry to learn of the death of your Mom. God bless you at this time. Remember, it's because of your dad that we met! I did not get to know your Mom as well but I know she was a very special person because she had you and your precious family. Love you very much!

Dearest Loretta and Family, it was a complete privilege to know your precious mother, Margaret. All the years I worked at Trinity and even past those years I enjoyed seeing your mother. Her wit, sparkle and personality certainly lit up my heart. She was a treasure in every way. So glad to have known her. So glad she was here on this Earth for 100 years. God bless you all.

My dear sweet generous Great Aunt Margaret would invite our family to their home for a grand Thanksgiving feast. I was about 6 years old and surrounded by rooms full of ancestry, it was refreshing to find any source of entertainment befitting a child. They had converted their attic into a grand scale player piano room, which - I was sure - was built just for me. With each annual visit, we would leave Ruston with at least one case of Coke, Fresca, Tab and Sprite in the trunk. The Dr Pepper Plant was 2 blocks from my Dallas home, but as you can see, my deep seeded roots with Coke would forever trump my brand loyalty. Over the next 46 years of my life, I have experienced and witnessed her generous spirit: annually she remembered us with a Christmas gift, when my sister went to China on a mission trip, she cheerfully donated. We rarely saw Aunt Margaret, but when we did, she always made us feel welcomed, loved, appreciated, special. Earlier this year, my Aunt Wilda passed away. Margaret was her favorite aunt. She loved her deeply, and fondly spoke of the special times they had together in Houston when Hale was treated for cancer. Margaret's love for God, her faith, and her steadfastness are many of the legacies I see her leave this earth with. I do believe she is met in heaven with words that sound like, "well done, my good and faithful servant."
