Margaret E. Cover

Margaret E. Cover, affectionately known as Peggy, embraced life a warmth and spirit that radiated love and kindness. Born on August 15, 1941, she graced this world for over eight decades, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts all who knew her. On September 16, 2024, Peggy passed away in Webster, Massachusetts, surrounded by memories that will forever echo in the lives she touched.

Peggy's life was a tapestry woven with connections, woven firmly by the love of her family. She was wife to Richard Cover Sr., sharing happy memories throughout their time together. Peggy was a nurturing mother to her daughters, Cynthia Cummings and Chrisandra Decker, whose lives have been shaped profoundly by their mother's unwavering love. As a grandmother, she was a source of immense pride and joy to her beloved grandchildren: Blaine Cover, Rayah Decker, Jacob Decker and Tyler Cummings, each of whom she showered with endless affection.

Though Peggy faced the sorrow of losing her son, Richard Cover Jr., and her sister, Hazel Christiansen, she carried the memories of her loved ones with grace. They were the stars in her firmament, guiding her through life's joys and tribulations, and now they reside in the embrace of her heart, shining brightly in her remembrance. Peggy’s maternal roots were deeply anchored in her mother, Hilda Tyacke, whose legacy of love and strength shaped her character.

In every fleeting moment of her life, Peggy exemplified what it meant to love fiercely. “Never a day would pass that we didn't feel loved,” her family reflects; the resounding affection instilled within them was a testament to her gentle spirit. “We felt it from the day we were born till her last whisper goodbye.” As the veil of her earthly journey was drawn, Peggy’s family took solace in knowing that she has found peace, resting her weary soul in God's arms.

The legacy of Margaret E. Cover will live on—through the laughter of her grandchildren, the shared stories of her daughters, and the warm memories held dear by her husband. As we bid farewell to our beloved Peggy, let us carry forward her spirit of love, ensuring that her light continues to shine brightly in each of our lives.
