Margaret Isabel Downs' Obituary
Margaret Downs, our sweet, beautiful mother and grandmother passed away peacefully this week, joining her one and only love who died more than thirty years ago. At the age of 97, she was ready to meet her “Pappy,” as she lovingly called him. A native Dallas site, she was the last of six siblings. Her family cherishes some wonderful memories – a cruise celebrating her 90″ birthday, a grand birthday party at her Oak Cliff Women’s Club, and a family Christmas party last year with all members of her extended family present at her assisted living residence. We are grateful for the loving care she received at Appletree Court and WillowCreek House. She is survived by her daughter, Dot Tinnin, grandsons Brian and Mark Tinnin, Brian’s wife Martha, two great grandchildren, Sofia and Jackson, and an extended family of nieces and nephews, spouses and children who loved her dearly. A private celebration of her long life will be held at a later time.
