Obituary of Marguerite Cummins

It is with profound sadness that the family of Marguerite Cummins announces her passing on February 10, 2008 at the age of 58 years. Marguerite was a gentle good hearted person. Her kindness and generosity was felt by each and every member of her family. Marguerite was born October 2, 1949 in Spiritwood, SK and shared her short but full life with her brothers and sisters. Her memory will live on in all our hearts forever, her presence and kindness will surely be missed. Marguerite will be remembered and sadly missed by the father of her children and friend, Gerald T.
