With sadness the family of Margaret Lacey announce her passing on Thursday, July 2, 2020 at the age of 93 years at the Riverview Health Center in Winnipeg.

Marg was born in Winnipeg on September 25, 1926 and attended Lord Roberts and Kelvin Schools. Marg married Ted Lacey in June 1953 and then moved to Virden, Manitoba in 1954. Ted was a hardware man and went into partnership in McBain’s Hardware Store. Marg and Ted lived on a small farm they bought north of Virden. Marg was a legal secretary for a Virden law firm until her retirement in 1986.

Marg is survived by sister Bea (Attree) sons Bruce (Elizabeth), David and Paul (Claudette). Grandchildren Bennett, Matthew, Brandon, Kristin, Nathan, Michelle, Stephanie, Sindy, Ryan, Christine, and David as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

Marg was predeceased by her husband Ted, parents James and Lillian Mitchell, her brothers Jack and Jim, sisters Leila (Littlewood) and Joyce (Lloyd), daughter in-law Susan.

During Marg’s younger years she enjoyed singing in the St. Albans Church Choir with her sisters, and later in St. Mary’s Church Choir in Virden. After Ted’s death Marg moved into Virden and enjoyed socializing with her many friends and acquaintances.

After suffering a stroke in 2009, Marg moved into Dakota House in Winnipeg. She enjoyed her many new friends there and her best friend and sister Joyce (Lloyd).
