Margaret enjoyed watching TV and was an avid reader. She joked about being able to multitask by reading and watching TV at the same time. She liked to look at magazines and shop through her catalog books. She was very generous with her gifts. Margaret was a wonderful cook and loved doing it. She learned at an early age from her mother how to cook the best home cooking around. It did not matter if she knew when you would be coming to her house, she always had a meal cooked and you did not leave hungry.
The Hickman-Strunk Funeral Home was honored to serve the family of Mrs. Margaret Corder.
