Maggie was married to my Dad. They had a pretty good time together. Lots of travels and adventures. She was my step mum for over 35 years. But she was so much more. We even agreed that she hated calling me her stepdaughter, and I, my stepmum. Maggie was the strongest woman I have ever met. Slightly intimidating too! But goodness me was She is interesting, knowledgeable and very well traveled. She knew something about everything, and she had the driest wit. Always delivered with a look and a twinkle in her eye. She was my biggest supporter and gave the best advice. I only wish we had lived closer, as I never saw her anywhere near enough. Maggie you fought such a brave fight. I hope you are at peace now and that they have Midsomer Murders up there xx
