I will miss everything about you momma! I don’t know if I’ll ever come to grips with knowing that I’ll never speak to you again but, I can only hope that you made it back into your momma and daddy’s arms and are now playing with all your favorite people that you’ve been missing over the years!
I love you!
Until we meet again ( unless god doesn’t let me in ?)

Thank you for being a wonderful great grandma to my babies. I am so glad you were able to see them grow up thus far and so thankful I had you here for my wedding. This will never get easier but I know you would tell me that I need to be strong for my babies. I’m trying. But damnit it’s hard. I love you so much, now and forever. Until we meet again, grandma.

Aunt Margaret,
I am going to miss you, so very much. Thank you for telling me stories about my Dad’s childhood as I was growing up. You gave me the best birthday parties, as an adult, on your patio. You always told me I was beautiful and how much I look like Daddy. I am sorry that at the time you told me that since I had lost my hair that I looked even more like my Dad, I wish I would had received it better, at the time I was still hiding it. With Bill’s love and encouragement, I decided a trial run not using things to cover up my hair loss. You were very supportive. Now, with pride I tell people that same thing. I love you. I was so happy that you took your maiden name back. I liked calling you the the “OG Sellars”. I am going to try to speak at your service. I hope you’d approve.
I was deeply saddened to hear of Maggie’s passing. I had the pleasure of working with her for 3 years. She and I had so many great conversations and lots of laughs, and a few tears a long the way. I miss her smiling face so much. We are all heartbroken that she is no longer with us. Our thoughts and many prayers go out to her family and many friends. You have our deepest condolences. I will see you again one day my friend.
I have been working with Margaret for many years. I will miss her a great deal. My thought and prayers are with the family.
My precious, Maggie! Your powerful spirit and abundant loyalty always shined so bright. You have been dedicated to the success of Sparhawk Laboratories each and every day especially on the days we stood strong together through the challenges. Your deep love for your family and your hard work always made my heart happy. I greatly appreciated our visits and smiles as I passed by your NOW very silent and empty spot in Labeling that only a woman like you could fill. I’ll love you forever and miss you always! Thank you for your love and devotion to all of us!
This little light of mine,

You will always be apart of my life and I wouldn’t change that for the world. It has been such a pleasure knowing such a beautiful woman inside and out! Rest easy until we meet again!
Maggie had been with Sparhawk since the beginning. Through all the early tough days and through all the ups and down ever since, she was a true and loyal member of the team. Her hard work, her commitment and her willingness to do whatever was asked (except inventory–she got out of that for years by refusing to get glasses!) helped this company succeed and grow. Our thoughts are with the family she loved so much.
Oh, Maggie. Always a smile. Always a real “how are you?” After 28 years of working near each other, if not together, I will miss seeing you. My thoughts are with all of your family.

I know I’m not making you happy right now with all my shananagans but I’m lost and can’t seem to get myself together since they took you 8 just can’t seem to face reality I love u Maggie so much till we see each other again please be my guardian angel ?
