Margaret Lois Wilson Reilly, 90, was born May 31, 1927. On June 19, 2017, after a thoughtful blessing, by Rev. Ben Schultz, she quietly passed. Margaret was preceded in death by her parents, Nell and Cecil Wilson, her sister, Joan Wilson, and her loving spouse of 51 years, Ben Reilly. Margaret grew up in Allen Park, Michigan. After receiving her Bachelor of Science degree from Michigan State Normal College (Eastern Michigan University) she lived and taught Home Economics in Dearborn, Michigan. Margaret enlightened scores of young women at Dearborn High School for 30 years. Margaret had an eye for perfection, she always desired to be an architect, instead she honed every discipline it takes to live life gracefully. She loved to travel. There were many trips with family, and adventures abroad with her husband Ben. Margaret is survived by loved cousins, nieces and nephews. She was as beautiful in her heart as she was in life. Margaret will rest with her family at Michigan Memorial Park. A celebration of her life is pending at this time.
