Margaret returned to Hemet where she worked for Hemet Hospital until she retired in 2005.
In 2006 Margaret moved to Whidbey Island to be with her daughter Chris and Chris’s family.
Margaret’s love of people drew her to the local Senior Center. She soon was volunteering for Statewide Health Insurance Advisors (SHIBA), a position she held for a number of years. Margaret also volunteered for AARP as a tax aide and greeter helping people with their paperwork.
