MARGARET COTTON Margaret Mary Cotton (nee Eburne) was born in Winnipeg on February 15, 1922, and died at the age of 91 on November 3, 2013, after several months in Victoria General Hospital in Winnipeg. Margaret was predeceased by her parents, seven older siblings and four older stepsiblings, and her husband, Edward (Ted) Albert Cotton. Margaret is survived by her son Edward (Ted) Cotton, Ted's wife Brenda and their son Brent in Winnipeg; her daughter Anne Toth in Calgary, Anne's husband Les, Anne's son Ryan Tetrault and his wife Kara in Calgary, Ryan's children Amanda and Michael in Saskatoon, Anne's daughter Renee Gray and her husband Ryan and their children Logan and Leila in Newmarket, Ontario. Margaret also is survived by her sister-in-law Hilda Cotton in Winnipeg and numerous other family members. Margaret grew up in Winnipeg, attended Gordon Bell high school and belonged to both St. Matthews Anglican Church (when she was younger) and then (after her marriage) St. George's Anglican Church (Crescentwood) in Winnipeg. She spent many years volunteering for St. George's on their telephone committee and knitting baby bonnets etc. for the Thelma Wynne Project layettes which are given to new mothers. She had many hobbies over the years including sewing, reading, knitting, crocheting and gardening both at home in Winnipeg and at her cottage near Clandeboye, Manitoba. Years ago, Margaret and her husband Ted enjoyed sailing at the Gimli Yacht Club and motorcycling with the Manitoba Motorcycle Club. She also enjoyed her home and long-time neighbours on Dudley Avenue where she had lived for over 60 years. Recently, she made many new friends at the Lindenwood Manor senior's residence after moving there a few years ago. Margaret's big friendly smile and outgoing personality will be missed by her friends and family. The family would like to thank the doctors, nurses and the staff of the Victoria General Hospital for their kind and committed care and all those who sent their wishes and visited Margaret during her time in hospital. A funeral will be held on Friday, November 8 at 11:00 a.m. at St. George's Anglican Church Crescentwood, 168 Wilton at Grosvenor, with reception and interment to follow.
