IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Margaret Elizabeth
Atkinson
March 10, 1940 – January 3, 2026
Margaret Elizabeth Atkinson (Taylor), age 85, passed away peacefully on January 3, 2026. She was born on March 10, 1940.
Margaret was the beloved wife of the late Robert A. Atkinson Jr. and a devoted mother to Robert A. Atkinson and his wife Madie, John E. Adkinson, and Margaret E. Comer and her husband Joe. She was a cherished grandmother to Justin H. Hartman, Olivia M. Gregory, Eleanor F. Atkinson, and Robert A. Atkinson, each of whom brought her immense joy.
A true homemaker at heart, Margaret was a very good mother who devoted her life to caring for her family. She was gifted with her hands and had a deep love for crafting. She enjoyed quilting, sewing, knitting, caning, and basket making, and also found peace and purpose tending to her garden.
Margaret was steadfast in her faith and deeply devoted to God. She loved Jesus and lived her life guided by her Christian beliefs. She sang joyfully in the church choir and was an active member of the United Methodist Women, as well as a proud Red Hatter, where she enjoyed fellowship and friendship.
