Margaret was born on July 30, 1920, in Luxemburg, Minnesota to Wendelin and Helen (Stang) Hansen. She married Norbert Leither on September 18, 1943, in St. Wendelin’s Catholic Church in Luxemburg. She worked for School District 742 as a cook, retiring in 1985. She was a member of St. Peter’s Catholic Church and Christian Women, Eagle’s Auxiliary, the VFW Post 428 Auxiliary, and the St. Barbara’s Mission Group.
Margaret will be remembered for her sharp card playing skills. She also enjoyed bingo and going to the casino. Margaret loved to knit, crochet, and sew. She especially treasured all the time spent with her family. Her grandsons and great grandchildren were her pride and joy.
Margaret is survived by her daughter, Debbie (Scott) Koopmeiners; grandchildren, Adam (Kelli), Robbie (Alisha), and Alex; great-grandson, Sawyer and great-granddaughter, Reese; sisters, Marie Weyrauch, Catherine Burgraff, Delores Mueller, and Mildred Hennen.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Norbert; brothers Leonard, Clemens, and Elmer Hansen.
My sincere condolences to you and your family. (Revelation 21:4) make the promise, where death will be going forever. What a beautiful promise that we all look forward, from our loving Creator, Jehovah God, (Psalm 83:18). May the God of peace be with you and your family.
Sincerely Yours,
Brandy Molina
