Maggie was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She loved her family and friends with all of her heart. She was a member of Salem Baptist Church for over 55 years, and treasurer for 20 years. All of her family has wonderful memories of going to church with her. Afterward they would go to her house to enjoy the feast she had prepared all morning before church so that they could eat promptly after church. She was a retired rancher. She worked side by side with her husband Allen daily with the feeding and working of the cattle. She continued caring for her cattle up to the age of 87. She loved to attend Rodeos all over. She loved to watch the Grand Ole Opry on TV. She loved good old country music. She also was a big fan of the fiddlers that came to town during the Fiddler's Frolics every year. Maggie also enjoyed attending reunions. She went to all of her old school reunions as long as she was able. She loved to go to family reunions, even if they weren't her family. Everyone always looked forward to her coming and bringing her "famous" chicken and dressing.
