Raymond and I were truly shocked and very saddened to hear of Margaret’s passing. We were very fortunate to have been neighbours with Gary and Margaret for many years here on Optimist. We have many fond memories of time spent with them. When Margaret moved to the Riverbend community we enjoyed a few golf games with her and having visits with her in her lovely condo. Margaret was a truly kind and beautiful person both inside and out. She was one of a kind! She will be very missed! May her memory be a blessing🥰. We are thinking and praying for Ryan and Jennifer and Jeff and Shauna and of course all of their children as they grieve for the loss of their wonderful grandmother! Sending hugs and much love your way!

I first met Marg at a Thames Valley Ambulance Christmas Party which I attended with my (paramedic) husband, David. She and Gary were snuggled together on the grand staircase of the venue. We chatted for a longtime and I found them both to be so friendly, funny and accepting. I met her later when we attended the same church and then be became elders together. Marg was the best! Kind, concerned, and caring. Devoted to her husband and family, friends, colleagues and church family. I’m sad she’s no longer with us but, I cherish the drives, meetings, retreats, dinners and conversations we shared and the wonderful person she was. She will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved her. God speed Marg and give our love to Gary and your grandbabies! ❤️🙏

I so enjoyed meeting Margaret at RiverBend - she was such a special person. My sincere condolences to her family. She will be missed....

I met Margaret as an Ambassador for RivedBend, welcoming new residents to the community. Margaret had a real joy for life and nature, and always a smile. It was a pleasure to have known her and she will be missed.

Margaret greeted us warmly when we moved in across the street from her. We knew instantly we had a new friend. We shared funny stories about nursing and policing over a glass of wine or two. We enjoyed helping her with a few chores and she was always cheerful and thankful. Her laughter was contagious and Margaret was always fun to be around. She spoke about her family whom she adored and we know they will miss her dearly too. The community will not be the same without our Dear Margaret. To all of the Keene and Johnson families, please know that Margaret was one of a kind. Rebecca and Dave

Our sincere condolences, Ryan and Jeff, on the loss of your mom. She was a wonderful friend and neighbour. We have many happy memories of our time in Mahlberg and family trips together. Both of your parents were special people, taken far too soon. ❤️

Such a beautiful lady inside and out. She was so kind and giving of herself. She'll be missed by many in the Riverbend community.

We wish to express our deep sorrow in the passing of Margaret. She will be remembered as kind and generous person whose optimism and warmth were present at many family gatherings. Our hearts go out to Jeff, Shauna, Channer, Calleigh and Clarkson. As well to Ryan, Jennifer and family and to the many friends who cared so much for Margaret. We are so sorry for your loss. Love, Laura, Doug, Catherine and Nini

Margaret was the first friend I made when we moved to London 10 years ago. She taught me so much about friendship, gardening and golf. And she used to chuckle when I told people she saved my life when I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes 8 years ago.. but I truly meant it.. I will miss morning coffee with her. Monday and Friday golf just won't be the same without her. Life at RiverBend just won't be the same without her. 💔

I offer my sincere condolences to Margaret’s family and friends. I had the pleasure of working with Margaret in the emergency department and I will remember her for her warm smile and calming presence. She loved that we were both able to share and talk about our military postings and related experiences. Her passing came as a shock as it was not long ago I saw her at Shauna’s clothing boutique. What a huge void for all of you, take comfort in all of your memories. Cathy

Dear Ryan, Jeffery and family, We are saddened to hear of the passing of our dear friend, Margaret. We met Marg and Gary in Germany where we shared many fine dining experiences and fun days on the ski 🎿 slopes of Europe. May she Rest in Peace. Sincerest condolences, Gary and Christine McDermott

Margaret was such a lovely person. I know she will be missed dearly. My condolences to her family.

I met Margaret three years ago in Riverbend, I so enjoyed golfing with Margaret and then playing mahjong with her. She had the most beautiful smile and warm heart. Margaret truly was a beautiful lady both inside and out. When you were with Margaret it was always a great day, I didn’t know Margaret for very long but I will truly miss her. My deepest sympathies to her family , my thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this sad time.

Ryan and Jennifer, Jeff and Shauna…and families. I am saddened to read of the passing of Margaret. She was a dear and exceptional friend. We worked together at CBS. I always looked forward to working with her and the times we would have coffee together. Such a blessing. Deepest condolences to you all.. May the Lord give His comfort and peace to sustain you, bless you in a special way..

Sincere condolences to the family. Margaret was a real special lady. We got to meet her at Riverbend. She was always smiling and always nice. It’s always a privilege to know people like Margaret. She will be missed.
