Goodbye Grandma, We will miss you.

Margaret Sarah Eidsness
Dec 12, 2007

1914 – 2007

Our beloved Margaret Sarah Eidsness of Woodchester Avenue in Bracebridge passed on December 3, 2007.
She was the first-born child (1914) to Agnes and Elmer Anderson, wife to Wilfred MacDonald (died 1942) and Ivar Eidsness (died 1979), mother to Catherine, Allen, David and Ruth-Anne, grandmother, great-grandmother, foster parent, good friend and neighbour. Margaret guided the lives of many.
“The family came when they were called, circled the room and silently counted the ways in which they loved you. They loved you beyond their own feelings of sadness, and their deep feelings of loss.”
Margaret nurtured her children to be good parents, good people and good friends. She loved her family and celebrated every moment of our lives. We have been enriched by her actions, love and constant prayers.
“A mother’s heart is loving, a true reflection of the peace found in our Savior and his everlasting love.”
- Her family
