Margaret Pauline Huber's Obituary
Margaret Pauline (nee Zoch) Huber came from God October 13, 1925. On August 24, 2021, after a full life, Margaret went back to God to receive the crown of life the risen Christ promises to those who are FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH. All glory be to God alone. She was born in Port Arthur, Texas to Alfred and Emily (nee Simank) Zoch, both now deceased, who were blessed with three children. She grew up in Thorndale and Austin, Texas and began her teaching career in 1946, retiring in 1950 to become the devoted, loving and supportive wife of the late Reverend Colonel Walter H. Huber (Pastor and Chaplain, USAF) and mother to three wonderful children.
Margaret’s life as a companion to Walter and church ministry began in Houston, and over the next 27 years she enjoyed and supported his military assignments in San Antonio, Texas; Burtonwood, England; Phoenix, Arizona; Misawa, Japan; Little Rock, Arkansas; Amarillo, Texas; Langley, Virginia; Anchorage, Alaska; Spokane, Washington; and the Panama Canal Zone. In 1977, after 27 years of military life, she moved to Waxahachie, Texas and eventually settled in Dallas, Texas where she continued to be active and involved in many Dallas area Lutheran churches until 2021. Margaret was proceeded in death by her loving husband of 55 years, Walter, and son, Wally Huber, both of Dallas. She is survived by her two children, Paula and son-in-law Scott Beasley of Dallas, and Bill and daughter-in-law Leslie (nee Reece) Huber of Dallas, Texas, daughter-in-law Kristen (nee Gisler) Huber of Dallas, Texas, grandchildren James Huber, Ben and Lacy Beasley, Jordan and Patrick Gusa, Emily Huber, Andrea and Chris Lacquement and Austin Huber, great grandchildren, Holland and Hayes Gusa, Rowan Huber and Cash Lacquement, brothers-in-law Martin Huber and Albert Huber and his wife Frances; and numerous nephews and nieces.
Margaret’s Christian-based, “servant-heart” approach to life and love for all people, as well as her untiring efforts, devotion and unselfishness will be greatly missed by all those who knew her.
