The below shown email is from Linda’s son and was written to Paul Sisco .

Mr. Paul, Not sure if Margo has gotten the "grapevine" going to all of her classmates, but I'm sad to tell you that Mom passed last night around 9:00pm surrounded by Dad, myself, Mrs. Anne Wheeler (her best friend of 36 years)my wife Rhonda and her family. It was very peaceful and she is now much happier than she has ever been.

We will be having a memorial service for her, but not sure when this week. This will be clarified later today and I will keep you in the loop as we progress.

Thank you for all of your kind words during the last month and a half.You will never ever know just how much you have meant to her over the years and because of that you will forever be in my heart for the happiness that all of you have given her.

Love,
Christopher


After marrying in 1967, Rob and I moved to Tampa, Florida and I graduated from the University of South Florida. After living there 3 years, Rob was transferred to Jacksonville, Florida, where we lived for 1 1/2 years.
Rob was then transferred to Atlanta and we've been in the area since 1971. We have one son, Christopher.

I taught English for 22 years. As I was tiring of the paper grading, I returned to school to University of Georgia and got a M.Ed. in Instructional Technology with certification so I could move into library/media. I returned to school again and completed the Ed.S a year ago. I've been at the same school for 25 years.

We are Labrador Retriever lovers and have two, Libby and Max who enjoy running around our ten acres in Social Circle, Georgia, 35 miles from downtown Atlanta.
