Our thoughts are with family and friends, we wish we could be there with you all. Sister Margaret you have been an inspiration and mentor to many and will be sadly missed. Our last visit will always hold a special place in our hearts, you scooting around to see us all and then a delicious chinese dinner and the next morning a tour of Mary Mackillop School, which Nicole went to in Werribee, (and yes.. she knew my principal!) God bless xx
Rest in peace, dear Margaret, great Josephite, wonderful community member, woman of wisdom and passion. Will miss your smile.
Rest in Peace Sr Margaret Lamb.
Sr Margaret was truly a beautiful caring lady and teacher. Both our fathers worked together on the wharves she was a Port Adelaide girl at heart just like me. She would attend our school reunions when she could and I would catch up with her at Mt Carmel College school events as well. I will miss her kind and loving support, may she rest in God's loving care.
A very special Josephine. Rest In Peace. God bless
thank you Margaret for who have been to us all and your great witness to life, hope and justice. Rest in deep peace.
Dearest Sr. Margaret, may you rest peacefully in God’s loving care. You were such an incredible leader, friend and a true example of the teachings and charism of Saint Mary MacKillop. With all my love and condolences to your family and all of the Sisters of St. Joseph. Patrick xxx
What a shock to hear of Margaret's death. Such a passionate and courageous Josephite. Kathleen Dawe (one of Margaret's group)and I were able to be present - virtually - to celebrate what Margaret has been for our world. Resting in God's love and peace.
