Margaret Catherine (Bolger) Stinson entered into eternal happiness on November 4, 2020. Margaret and her beloved husband Ivan, who passed away in 2018, pursued very active post-retirement volunteer careers. Both felt a special fondness for Landscape Ontario, and donated countless volunteer hours toward the association’s green initiatives. Margaret also served on CNLA’s Green Cities Foundation Board. Margaret was the loving mother of Ross (deceased 2010) and Lisa (Brock) Crawford and dear grandmother of Rebecca (Mark) Degani, Victoria (James Edwards) Stinson and Laura Crawford, and great grandmother of Claire and Neil Degani. Margaret was the daughter of the late Robert and Emily (Lasby) Bolger, sister of the late Walter (deceased), Lorne (deceased), Mabelellen (Humphries) (deceased) and William Ross Bolger. Margaret impacted many lives through her teaching and mentoring.
She was a beautiful, radiant woman who brought her passion to everything she did and inspired people to help others. Margaret strongly believed in volunteering and 'community' in order to make the world a better place. Margaret has joined Ivan and the team is back together.
