I was privileged to be one of Margaret's chemistry students at Queen's. I loved her lessons, she made learning and chemistry fun. She had the most wonderful energy and enthusiasm which was contagious. She touched many of our lives, whether she knew it or not. She was truely inspiring and compassionate and shaped the person who I am today. May you rest in peace.

Margaret is the reason that I teach today. An incredible Science teacher who I looked up to as a student and had the privilege to teach with at Queens High School. She brought out the best in everyone around her, be it student or teacher. Thank you, Margaret, for inspiring me.
