Margit was a dear friend who will be greatly missed.  Hospitality was so important to her.  She always graciously offered a beverage and treat when I visited her on Oxford Street and in Parkview.  Margit had an inquiring mind.  Conversation topics would be varied and always fascinating.  She enjoyed reading and often recommended books to me.  (Two of my favorites were The Wonderful Adventures of Nils by Selma Lagerlof and Being Mortal by Atul Gawande.)  Communication with friends and family was important to Margit.  She often wrote notes of thanks or encouragement.  It amazed me that when Margit was in her 90s she was still corresponding with folks via email. When I was contemplating making a trip to Sweden to meet my newly found cousins, Margit encouraged me to do so.  She shared stories about Sweden, its culture, and even helped me when I was studying Swedish.  My condolences to you as you mourn the death of your dear mother and grandmother.  I pray that stories and reminiscences of Margit will comfort you.
