Margaret and I have been friends since kindergarten at John M. King School in Winnipeg. We shared many of the same friends and often had sleepovers at one another's house. Margaret's Mom & Dad & brother John always made me feel welcome and I felt right at home at their house. I knew her Nanny & Grampa. Her Grampa worked at Alsco Doors and we often went to visit him. He too was a lot of fun just like the rest of the family. Margaret and I have always kept in touch. I moved west and Margaret moved east but that never separated our friendship. Margaret was a caring and loving person even when she was young. I never seen her upset. I will miss her dearly. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you, Cherish fond memories. May God bless all of you daily. Lovingly, George & Diane Karpinsky - Posted by: Diane Karpinsky (friends since kindergarten) on: Oct 09, 2019
