Mrs Goldsborough was a blessing in our neighborhood and kept me & Philip out of a lot of trouble:) We loved her very much and are very sad for her passing. She fed me when I was hungry and always was happy to see me even when she had to give us a scolding - what a lady of grace.

I once purchased a house where Margaret was the listing realtor. She made the experience even more wonderful than it was to buy a home. She was friendly, professional, considerate and more. I never forgot her. Then last Christmas, she accidently called my landline to invite a friend to her Christmas party. since she had called the wrong number I called her back to let her know that, thinking that the friend would wonder why she wasn't invited to Margaret's party. For some reason, I didn't mention who I was or that I knew her, but she said "well, you come to my party too". I declined but so appreciated the invitation.
I know she will be so missed by her family and friends. What a lady! She was one of a kind. So happy that I did get to meet her.
