Margaret Lind Obituary

Margaret "Maggie" Lind
Aiken - Margaret E. (Maggie) Lind, 68, succumbed to cancer after her long fight on Sunday, May 16, 2021. She passed in her home surrounded by her loving husband and children.
She was born in Midland, Michigan to her predeceased parents, Edwin and Lucille Tucker. Maggie was a devoted wife, mother, sister, grandmother, aunt, friend, and servant. She lived a life full of joy, laughter, and dedication to her family and friends; always finding the blessings. Her passion for community is highlighted by service as a Loaned Executive with United Way and her participation with Toys for Tots. She made elaborate baskets for the elderly during the Easter season, purchased games and toys for orphanages, bought and delivered several CD players for a nursing home, participated in stuff the bus, and countless other efforts. If she could find a kind act, she implemented it. If there was a community need, she met it. If there was a holiday or occasion, she ornately celebrated it. Christmas was her favorite holiday and she was the grandmother extraordinaire to her grandchildren, as well as many other children. Maggie lived life abundantly. She loved, gave, and kept joy in her heart; even through her battle, and up until her final days. She found the good in everyone and every situation and encouraged others to do the same. She also enjoyed playing Bunco, participating in Bechtel Wives Club, Garden Club, Book Club and Gourmet lunch Club. Maggie retired from Bechtel after 28 years while working at the Savannah River Site.
She is survived by her husband Rick Lind; Brother Edwin Tucker and wife Carla; Sons Shayne Case and wife Meg, John Case and wife Chrissy; Daughters Andrea Boyes and husband Dale, and Jonelle Lieb. She is grandmother to eight grandchildren; Jonathon Case, Ricardo Jones, Aidan Case, Marshall Case, Dylan Young, Jordan Sheckels, Tyler Baird, and Anna Baird. She is also the Aunt to three; Nicholas, Chad, and Kenneth Tucker.
Please join us for a celebration of life which will be held at Betsy's Around the Corner on Saturday, May 22nd from 4 to 8 PM at 224 Park Ave SW Aiken, South Carolina. 29801.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Aiken County United Way P.O. Box 699, Aiken, SC 29801 or simply pay it forward with a kind deed; as Maggie would surely do.

Deepest sympathy to Rick and the rest of the Lind family. I worked with Maggie and Rick at Savannah River Site. The world needs more individuals like Maggie. She had a great kind heart and always went above and beyond the call of duty at work.

It was an honor to work with Maggie for so many years at the SRS. She was a special person who was always willing to go the extra mile to make our jobs easier. I will miss her smile and upbeat attitude. She touched the lives of everyone she worked with in some memorable way. Love and Peace to Rick and the family.
