Hers was a life made rich by the family she had grown. Fostered, nurtured and lovingly sang to, as one does a precious garden; Margaret Ormsby raised a family of wildflowers, beautiful children. Each as unique, each as proud and each as loved. Nanny adored her children, her grandchildren and great grandchildren, she loved them to the ends of her fingertips. She taught kindness by example, excelled in generosity, with an unparalleled wit and pure honest values. She was that which we all strive to be, a standard, an example, a mother we will never forget.

Preceded in Everlasting Peace by her husband, Donald Ormsby. Eternally missed and always cherished by her children Ann (Scott) Olsen, Sue (Mike) Miller, Linda Solati, Lisa (Tim) Ormsby Steinhauer, Patrick (Patricia) Ormsby, Ronald (Amber) Ormsby and Meghan Ormsby.
