My deepest condolences to Margriet’s family, including those at Albion Hills Bible Church. Seeing Margriet at church on Sundays was always a highlight of my week. She never failed to put a smile on my face and I loved hearing about Pepper and the things she had baked the previous week. Margriet will be sincerely missed and her memory will be a blessing.
