Margaret Ann was first a daughter, sister, and cousin, then a wife, mother, aunt, grandma and great-grandma. She was so proud of every one of those titles. Her faith, family, her roots and her home were Margaret Ann’s life. Margaret Ann loved many things. She loved her family and the times they spent together. She loved the games of Rook and Bridge. She especially loved playing Bridge, and made many friends over the years while playing the card game. Those friendships were valued dearly. She loved Easter in D’Hanis and the beautiful bluebonnets that graced the landscape in the Spring. Margaret Ann loved the Dallas Cowboys, Nebraska Cornhuskers, TCU and of course, Texas A&M.
