It saddened us to hear about Maggie's passing. We have good memories of laughing with Maggie at various events and on Tuesdays with the Jonesborough Storytellers Guild. She was a dedicated worker and always spoke lovingly about her Methodist Church. May God bless her family as they grieve Maggie's loss.

So sorry to hear about Maggie's passing. She was a sweet generous and soul and I enjoyed working alongside her in the community plays. She will be dearly missed.
Maggie had such a servant heart! She made so many contributions to the Jonesborough community including working with Family Promise, providing clothes for the community, participating in the Jonesborough Storytellers Guild and much more. Sending love and sympathy to all the family.
