Margaret Thompson (née Oliver) passed away peacefully at the Assiniboine Center on Wednesday, March 14, 2007.

Margaret was born in Rivers and grew up in Shoal Lake. She was an air force nurse during the Second World War and later lived in Winnipeg, Brandon, Red Deer, AB, Victoria, BC, and Burnaby BC. She "came home" to Brandon in 2005 and lived her last months cherishing time with people and places she remembered and loved. Margaret was a dynamic woman who was a loyal and loving mother and grandmother, and a friend to all she met. She was interested in people and never failed to recall a friendly face.

Many Brandon people rallied to help the family and provide loving support during that difficult time.
