Margaret's obituary

Margaret Ann Atwood passed away suddenly, on December 1, 2021, at Saint Francis Hospital in Colorado Springs at age 52. Margaret was born in Hartford, Connecticut on January 29, 1969 to Michael and Margherita Atwood. In 1978, her family moved to Colorado, where she resided the remainder of her life.

Margaret got her CNA lisence at 14, and continued this work after her graduation from Canon City High School in 1987. Following that, she became a state correctional officer, and then moved on to being a home maker. In her final years, she worked as a customer service representative.

Margaret loved going to the beach, tanning, cooking, roses, love songs, and making people laugh. Her laugh was contagious, and brightened the room.

She will be deeply missed by her children Matheu (Daisy) Sheppard, and Kayla (Ryan) Nelson. Also by her grandchildren Alianna Perigen, Ameerah Nelson, and Ezequiel Sheppard. In addition to her siblings Michelle (Edward) Stack, Marcia Atwood, and Michael (Tonya) Atwood. She also leaves behind beloved nieces and nephews.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal. Love leaves a memory no one can steal.
