Obituary

Margaret Dewar Lewis, 83, of Greensboro, NC, went home to be with her Lord on Sunday, September 17, 2023, at home surrounded by her loving family.  Margaret was born on August 22, 1940 in Glasgow, Scotland, the second child of the late Daniel and Janet McCue, alongside siblings Maureen and Daniel.

Margaret emigrated to the United States from Scotland in 1959.  She worked many jobs before retiring at the age of 58.  She was a four-time cancer survivor.  She loved the company of her many children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.  She also enjoyed knitting and crocheting beautiful and elaborate blankets, reading, and watching crime dramas.

Margaret is survived by her five children, Janet Huff and husband, David; Paul Furman and wife Mary Ellen; Annie Kielas; Margaret Peterson and husband, Gregory Hayes; Lisa McDaniel and husband, Patrick Jr.; nine grandchildren, Stephan Kielas and wife, Erica; Brittany Peterson; Ashley Frye and husband Robbie; Sarah Kielas; Jacob Kielas and wife, Shannon; Paul Edward Furman; Patrick McDaniel, III; Lauryn McDaniel; Isaiah Huff; and nine great-grandchildren, Hayden Bullis, Alexis Fulp, Alexander Lopez, Brianna Lopez, Aracelli Lopez, Daniel Lopez, Jeremiah Kielas, Tristan Kielas, and Maverick Kielas.

Margaret’s legacy will forever remain in our hearts, a testament to a life well-lived. May she rest in eternal peace.

A celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, October 21, 2023, at 1:00PM at New Life Family Church at 6701 Ken Coy Rd, Jamestown, NC 27282. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Hospice of the Piedmont, the American Cancer Society, or the Alzheimer’s Association.

    Dear family, My heart aches from the grief that you are suffering. Knowing of God's embracing love for you, continue looking to him when " He will wipe out all tears from our eyes, death, pain, and suffering will be no more. " - Revelation 21: 3,4 He says death is an " enemy that will be brought to nothing. " 1 - Corinthians 15:26 It comforts our hearts to know this pain will be a thing of the past and through Christ the resurrection of our loved ones. We " do not sorrow just as the rest do who have no hope! " 1 Thessalonians 4:13 love from a stranger, jrfdog@gmail.com
