Margret LEGEER

October 21, 2013

LEGEER, Margret Tannis. With great sorrow, we say good-bye to Margret Tannis Legeer who left us on October 21, 2013 after a courageous battle with cancer. Margret was born in Prince Rupert, BC and was then raised in Vancouver where she met and married the love of her life, Ronald J. Legeer in June 1945. As a naval officer's wife, she lived in both Ottawa and Washington, D.C. before settling in the White Rock area in 1975. The joy of her life was raising her children, her son, Richard Legeer and daughter Karen Legeer. She adored the many dogs, the family had and rejoiced in the beautiful gardens she helped create. Margret took great pride in supporting the Peace Arch Hospital auxiliary through her volunteer work. She is survived by her husband of 68 years, Ronald J. Legeer, her son, Richard Legeer (Josie), her loving daughter, Karen Legeer, her grandsons, Beau and Sean Legeer and four great-granddaughters. She will be lovingly remembered by her nephews, Michael Anderson (Denise) and Rick (Karin) and their families. Family and friends were blessed to have been a part of Margret's life and she will always have a place in their hearts. A service was held at the Church of Holy Trinity, White Rock, BC.
