Margaret Ann Dunaway was 65 years old living in Florence. She passed away at home on July 25, 2015, after a long battle with cancer.

Margaret was born in Magee Oct 11, 1949. She grew up in Vicksburg and married Bill Dunaway, also from Vicksburg, on Oct 26, 1968, and they were happily married for 46 years. They were best friends, retired together, traveled through retirement and settled in Mountain View, Ark. for the last three years until Bill’s passing in Sept 2014.

Margaret worked for the Warren County School system for over 30 years as a cafeteria manager.

Mathew 25:40 tells us “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’”

Margaret loved and fed thousands of children over her career and I feel assured she has thousands of crowns laid up for her in heaven.

She is survived by two sons; a brother; five grandchildren; and four nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her husband and parents.

Margaret will be laid to rest with a graveside service on Tuesday July 28, 2015, at 9 a.m. at Greenlawn Gardens Cemetery, with Joe Canon officiating.

Pallbearers will be Richard Dunaway, Ricky Dunaway, Wayne Hearn, Dave Richards, Marce Rutland, Ricky Tew and Doug Christman.

Margaret Dunaway was a good woman, a faithful follower of Christ, a loving wife, a devoted mother, a cherished daughter and sister, and a dear friend. You will be missed and never forgotten. Amen.
