beyond. She was a faithful Christian, quintessential educator with a passion to inspire her students to achieve, noted historian and author, community activist and volunteer. Margaret was a tireless advocate for opening opportunities for our children; for equality, equity and justice for us all; and for the betterment of our City of Dayton.
