Margaret spoke with her hands, describing even little larvae with delight. She always had a smile and would burst out
into laughter easily. She kept a beautiful garden, loved her walks and delighted in her grandchildren. She was taken too soon and we will miss her daily. Thinking of you George, Frank, Ian and Beth’s beautiful family.
Love Carol and Malcolm

Condolences to George and family. Anytime I called for George….if Margaret picked up the phone she was always spunky and I will miss talking with Margaret.

My deepest sympathies to the family of Margaret, she was a lovely lady.

Marg Gould was a colleague of mine at St. Mary’s School in Goderich. As she was working as a teacher assistant, I couldn’t help noticing her devotion to the kids she worked with, her tremendous kindness to everyone, and being always ready to help in any situation. A true wonderful person! My deepest condolences to George, her children and grand children! She will be terribly missed!

Our condolences to the Gould and Kovacs families. I always enjoyed my weekly chats with Marg she was a beautiful woman.

Marg was truly a lovely person .. I knew her from St Mary’s and from other fun things that involved activities, smiles and laughs !
Marg was a real gem her smile and laughter will be remembered.
It is a great loss as a friend and to our community!
Condolences to the entire family.
I am sorry to miss her celebration of life

Sincerest condolences to all the Gould Family on the the loss of Marg. She was always smiling and a wonderful lady.

Marg’s enthusiasm, energy and Joie de vivre were inspiring. She was an EA in my class for only one year, but we spent about 20 years together at St. Mary’s School sharing lunch breaks, stories, coaching, masses, supervision, and even French.
Adolfo and I send our love and sympathy to George and the family. Marg’s smile and laughter are forever in our hearts.

So incredibly sorry to see this. Marg was such a lovely person. I enjoyed our walks and talks and our outings on the paddle boards. I’ll attach a lovely picture of her in front of a Goderich sunset from July 11, 2021 that shows her glowing as well. ❤️Sincere condolences to all of you.

We would like to express our heartfelt sympathy to all of Margs family at this very sad time🫶our hearts go out to all of you as you mourn this great loss.
Personally I have known Marg for almost 40 yrs., started with babysitting her children, to working in the same school board, to eventually working in the same school alongside each other.
She had the biggest heart, and smile that she shared with so many, but especially with her students who loved her unconditionally.
Heaven has gained an angel, and her bright light will be sorely missed in our community.
Rest in Peace dear friend!
The Reynolds Family

I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Marg was one of the most caring and compassionate people I have ever met. When working with students, she poured her heart into everything she did, always putting their needs first and making a lasting impact on so many lives.

Her kindness and dedication will never be forgotten. I feel truly fortunate to have known and worked with her. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

With deepest sympathy,
Lauren

Marg is/was one of the most wonderful
Human beings. A beautiful person. She meant so much to so many. Rest in peace Marg and love to her family

Our sincere condolences to all of Margaret’s family and friends; she was a special lady. Sincerely Mike and Val Bendig and family.

We remember Marg first as Beth’s mom, later as the always cheerful and chatty walker of dogs that enthusiastically pulled her along, and more recently as proud grandmother. We remember her now as brave in the face of her illness, and we grieve that her grandchildren will not experience the love she would have delighted in showering on them. Our most sincere sympathy to George, Frank, Ian and of course Beth, and families.

My deepest sympathy. Marg was such a Beautiful Person!!! And always fun to be around! Marg will be sadly missed!

It was such a pleasure to work with Marg at St. Mary’s school in Goderich. She worked with love and dedication for the betterment of each of the students that were in her care in order for them to reach their full potential. I witnessed Marg being a Guardian Angel with her students as she advocated for them with the most compassionate care, assisting them to be the best they could be and to reach their full potential…..as if they were her own. She was a Mother (St) Theresa. She was always kind and considerate, and a friend to all. She made the world a better place, and for that I know she will be reaping her just rewards in her Heavenly home. It was fun celebrating our birthdays a day apart. May you rest in peace dear Marg.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Marg. My sincere condolences to George and all of her family❤️

George and family my deepest sympathy for the loss of a wonderful human. Margaret will be missed by so many people.

My regards to the family. Marg was a bright light. She held a purposeful intensity that when we met up, infrequently, her welcome felt like we had just spoken—yesterday. What a Super Power. At Rest, I imagine her repose to be flight rather than supine – ever she was, the energizer bunny. Goderich has lost a beautiful person. I will watch for her, over the horizon. Brenda (nee Thompson) Blackwell.

We are so sorry for your loss. Marg was a beautiful woman inside and out. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers.

I was blessed to work with Marg and her positivity was truly inspirational. We loved chatting about gardening, beautiful walks and her sister Theresa.
May God bless her family and may she rest in peace. I am sorry I’m out of the country and am unable to join the community to celebrate her life.

The last time I spoke to Margaret I invited her to stop and chat on the front porch when she was walking by again. Because she was always so upbeat, I did not realize that that would not be happening. George, to you and yours, please accept my condolences. May she rest in peace. Karen Sturdy

Marg was my EA for 3 years at St. Mary’s. I will always remeber her pushing me to do my best, wether it was when we were doing hard physio exercises or working on my school work. I have fond memories of us passing the time by talking about basketball and science. After I graduated elementary school, I always loved running into her in the community.

I offer my deepest condolences to the Gould family. She will be missed dearly.

My sincere condolences the family and friends mourning Marg’s passing. She was so beautiful, inside and out and it was always a lovely treat to run into and share a quick conversation while we were both on our way to somewhere else. She will be greatly missed.

With our heartfelt Sympathy,
Gerd & Astrid

Mrs. Gould,
I am sad that you are no longer here, but so very happy that I had so many years being loved by you. How do you thank someone who was your major advocate, who loved you unconditionally and who taught you not only school stuff but also what was really important in life? 
You taught me to smile, even when days were tough, have fun and do the best that I could and God will take care of the rest.
We shared so many laughs and even when I started to have a hard time walking and my physical ability declined, you didn’t give up on me. You worked out at the YMCA so that you would be strong enough to keep working with me.
There are no words to express how much gratitude I feel having had you as my EA most of my elementary years. 
You supported me even after I left St. Mary’s. Your presence at all my major events meant the world to me. Seeing you cheering me on when I graduated from Banting Secondary School in London in June, 2024 was the best! 
Thank you for believing in me and giving me every opportunity possible to live my best life! 
Until we meet again…I’m sending high 5’s and tons of squeezy hugs! xx 
I will be at St. Peter’s Church smiling when we celebrate your life. I might even be chuckling about some inside jokes me and you shared. You’re the best! 
You are and will forever be my hero!
Forever in my heart,
Steven Wild-Denys (and mom, Theresa Wild) 
Sending hugs to your family. It’s hard to lose someone so amazing. ❤️🪽

George and all of Marg’s family – we extend our heartfelt sympathy. Marg was a lovely, kind and caring woman and she will be missed so much. Thinking of you.

We were so sorry to hear about Marg. She was such a kind person. I remember when all of our kids were little and she would help out so much sharing play dates and car pooling. So long ago but she was a big help.

Marg’s kind heart, friendship, and caregiving was an example. She always wanted the best for everyone and was so patient and forgiving. I will remember you and cherish my memories of you!
