Special Info |
Margaret Lillian Gibbs, 70, passed away on February 24, 2021 at Interfaith
Hospital in Brooklyn, New York. She was born on January 18, 1951 in La Fortune, St.
Patrick’s, Grenada to Lincoln and Helena Pascall.
Margaret spent her youth in Grenada, attended St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic School,
and graduated from Saint Joseph’s Convent Grenville. Margaret immigrated to the
United States in 1982, planting roots in Brooklyn, New York. She was an active member
of her local church and would go on to enjoy a fulfilling career as a healthcare aide. An
unsuccessful hip replacement forced her into early retirement.
Among her passions were shopping, indulging in a home cooked meal, watching classic
television shows, such as Martin, and sipping a tasty cocktail. She was also very
creative and would knit, sew, and crochet the most beautifully ornate items. She took
pride in her talents and paid it forward by teaching others. Her favorite holidays were
Easter and Christmas, and each year she maintained Grenadian traditions, such as
outfitting her home with new and festive décor throughout and cooking the most
delicious ham. Some of our favorite memories of her are of times spent around her
dining table sharing stories and delicious food. Her laugh was infectious, and her smile
could light up a room.
Margaret is survived by her son Roger of Laurel, Maryland, and his wife Lisa; her
siblings Mary of Queens, NY, Sydney of Brooklyn, NY, and his wife Bernadette, and
Glastilian of River Road, St. George’s, Grenada, and his wife Violet; and her nieces and
nephews and other relatives.
Her memory will live on and will be a constant reminder to us all that while we can, we
should make certain to live every day like it is our last, and to give our loved ones their
flowers while they can still smell them.
