It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Margaret Edgar at Fonthill House Nursing Home on 18th March.
Margaret was the much-beloved wife of Roy, devoted mother of David, James and daughter-in-law Victoria, and proud grandmother of her granddaughters Grace, Charlie and Izzy.
She was a happy person who enjoyed the company of many friends and a wide family circle. She was much respected by all who knew her as a smart thinker with a strong strength of character who yet managed to remain always kind and caring.
Margaret was strongly devoted to the education of children. When she left work for a time to look after our two sons she initially assisted in the administration of 2 local nursery schools. She then became a governor/Chair of Governors for Cunningham Hill Infant School for over 3 decades. For part of this time she was concurrently governor/Chair of Governors for the adjoining Junior School. She also ran a Sunday Club class for 3-year-olds in St Albans Abbey for 32 years.
There will be a committal for close family members only at Hemel Hempstead Crematorium in the morning of 22nd April and a Memorial Service at the Cathedral and Abbey Church of St Albans at 2.00 pm, to which all are invited, followed by refreshments in the Abbey's Abbots Kitchen.
Dress code: formal with a splash of colour.
No flowers please.
If you would like to make a donation in Margaret's memory then we are raising money to improve the library at Cunningham Hill Infant School. Donations can be made on the Just Giving page at www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/in-memory-margaret-edgar
