The deceased leaves three sons, one daughter, and a very large circle of friends, to mourn her loss."
A number of Margaret and Nathan's children and family are buried here. Margaret died near the cemetery as well. It seems the most likely place for her burial. Findagrave volunteer needs to check cemetery for stone.
