Was born on June 9, 1927 in Maryland Heights, Mo., and passed away November 19, 2007 at Providence Colby Campus Hospital in Everett. She was preceded in death by husband Russ Waldo (1993); son Roy Waldo (1984); and son-in-law Alan Harju (2006).

She had a very large family, which included: William (Chelle); Claire (Chuck); Richard (Marcy); Marilyn (Alan deceased); Roy (deceased); Delores (Danny); Carol and Floyd (Stephanie); and Stepson Michael (Kathy).

She had lots of nieces and nephews along with grand and great grandchildren. She lived in a senior housing apartment in Kent, Wash. There she met a lot of new friends where she would enjoy playing cards, bingo or just chat or catch the dart bus to go with groups to the casinos or wherever else.

Our mother was a very caring person who never asked for anything. Life was not easy for her but she made the best of what she had. The door was always open and she sure loved her family and especially her grandchildren. She was also a member of White Center Eagles.

We wish to thank all her friends that came to see her while she was sick and the staff of nurses and doctors in Everett who cared for her. Celebration of Margaret's Life will be announced at a later date.
