She was predeceased by her husband: Harold LeRoux; son: Scott LeRoux; daughter: Ann LeRoux; sisters: Florence Howse & Katie Walsh; brother: Richard Davis; parents: Ishmael & Mary Davis. Margaret was a beautiful, selfless, quiet and gentle soul that loved her family and friends unconditionally. She was always up for an adventure and loved to travel. She obtained her Drivers Licence in her mid-fifties, rode a motorcycle and a horse plus took a ride in a helicopter in her mid-sixties. In her seventies she travelled to Disney several times, went on a Caribbean Cruise (Swam with dolphins), and visited almost every nook and cranny in NL. She cared for her late husband for several years as his dementia progressed. She loved phone calls from her two grandchildren Lee and Lucy, always had a positive attitude, loved to laugh, but dare not interrupt her when she was watching Coronation Street.
