Marjorie Ethel Beggs (CampbeLl, Cobb)

July 4th, 1909 -August 29th, 2008

After a long, varied and at times difficult life, Marjorie passed away peacefully at Lady Minto Hospital with her family at her side. She was happiest in her last 35 years here on Salt Spring Island. She was active in the hiking and garden clubs and enjoyed her last five years at Meadowbrook.

This strong minded, independent woman survived two wars, two husbands and the passing of many friends and relatives.

Survived by son Tony Campbell (Kate), grandson Greg (Marianne), grandaughter Erin, nephews John (Marie) and Robin (Rona), and the many people she touched during her life.

Thanks to Lady Minto Hospital, all the wonderful staff and Dr. Woodley. A service celebrating her life at Meadowbrook will be at a later date.

As Marge was a florist on and off for 50 years, she would have most appreciated plants for Meadowbrook rather than cut flowers.
