Margaret married the love of her life, George Harvey, in 1957.  During their marriage that spanned almost 65 years, Margaret and George lived in five cities in Texas, St. Louis, Oklahoma City, New Providence, NJ, while moving frequently because of George’s management career with AT&T, all the while raising three sons (Daryl, Clay, and Kyle). After living in Fair Oaks Ranch for 25 years, her final home was Discovery Village at Dominion for the past five years.

She cherished the love of her husband, sons, and extended family. She was an exceptional and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.
