Katrina, Eugene, Barbara, Shirley and the Brown family, I can only imagine how you must feel at the loss of one so precious. I only knew Margaret for 9 short years, but it felt like I knew her forever. You had her for a lifetime so I can only imagine the heartache you must feel. When my sister passed away 4 years ago, Margaret became my sister and my friend and I loved her dearly. She made the ensuing years following my sister's death bearable. My heart aches to know that my friend is no longer with us in body, but I know she is with us in spirit, checking everything out and still making sure we do it right. Lets keep holding on to God's unchanging hands and he will get us through the dark days ahead. You are an amazing family so please continue to take care of each other the same way Margaret took care of all of us. God Bless.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. My husband and I went to St. Francis and spoke with her sister, we didn't have the opportunity to see her, but we kept her in prayer. I know that Ms. Margaret is resting in Jesus. Family just know that Ms. Margaret lived a wonderful life that we can only pray to live. She truly represented a Godly life. She was a great example of God's unconditional love. I've had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Brown @ OSI, and I thank God that I had the opportunity in meeting such a wonderful woman. Her homegoing celebration was truly a blessing. The Life She Lived Definitely Spoke For Her. I too have loss my mother November, 2006. I would like to share this scripture with you family 1 Thessalonians 4 13:18.

Having worked with Margaret for over 17 years while in Charleston, I always appreciated her realistic approach to life. She was always kind and her laugh was infectious. She was always one of my favorites. As much as she loved her children, I can only imagine how she treated her grands...May God's Peace be with you during this difficult time.

To the Brown Family:
Ms. Margaret has helped hundreds of folks in the Charleston area with training assistance, Trade related payments, workforce development, and dislocated worker assistance. At the Navy Base closure project, she assisted so many folks with school, transition into the labor market, and unemployment benefits.
She guided others to help others and did things the right way always showing professionalism and following the special program rules, while always trying to help our customers improve their lives.
To the family, THANKS for allowing Margaret to be a part of our lives as well. We know she will be up in heaven seeking to help others succeed! Margaret -- Goodbye and Godspeed! from your colleague and friend, Gary.

To Katrina, Barbara, Shirley and the other family members. As you go through this difficult time in your life, may you find comfort in knowing that Margaret has completed her purpose her on earth and has gone on to get her reward.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
