Obituary: Satterlee, Margaret May (Mullin)

Age 84

SATTERLEE, Margaret M. (Mullin) Passed away on August 24, 2015.

She was born August 12, 1931 in Buffalo, New York to John and Ruth Mullin.

She was the second of four children.

She moved in high school to Wellsville, New York to live with her two great- aunts.

There she met our dad, Jack Satterlee.

They graduated together in 1949 from Wellsville High School and married the next year.

They celebrated 60 years of marriage before Dad’s passing in 2012.

Mom worked at the phone company after high school and again starting in the 1970s.

She retired with 25 years of service.

She stayed busy as a Sunday school teacher, scout leader and Beta Sigma Phi sorority member.

Last year she was awarded for 50 years membership by her local sorority sisters.

A lifelong hobby of sewing turned serious in retirement when she became a dedicated and accomplished quilter.

She took great pride in her work.

We all are blessed with the bounty!

Family meant the world to her.

She loved being a grandma and a great grandma.

Margaret was a gentle soul who was silly and made us all laugh.

We will miss her.

Margaret is survived by her four children; Jack H. Satterlee, George H. Satterlee both of Spokane, Ann Warner (Patrick) and Jill Edens (Jerry) of Liberty Lake and six grandchildren; Ryan Satterlee, Graham Satterlee, Galen Satterlee, Amy Bjorn, Randy Edens and Josie Warner and nine great-grandchildren; Dane Satterlee, Paige Satterlee, Gwen Satterlee, Brad Bjorn, Maddie Bjorn, Preston Bjorn, Carter Edens, Ella Edens, and Kasey Edens.

The family would like to thank the staff at Guardian Angel Assisted Living for their tender loving care as well as Hospice of Spokane.

A memorial service will he be held Saturday August 29 at 11am at Heritage Funeral Home.
