Margaret M (Beard) Wright born March 16, 1925, went to be with our Lord Jesus Christ on March 2, 2022. She was known as the “Ticket Lady” around the surrounding area for selling tickets for the Omega Homemade Ice Cream Social.

She married Robert L. Wright on March 17, 1948, and he proceeded in death. From that union were two sons; Robert A. Wright and Merle L. Wright (wife Anna). Also from that union were two grandchildren; Damon R. Wright and wife Patti and Denise M (Wright) Garden and very close friend Andy Garden, plus three great-grandchildren Joshua R. Wright, Sophia M. Wright, and Isaiah W. Wright.

She was proceeded in death by her parents; Ernie and Ida (Tarter) Beard and all five of her brothers; Gerald Beard wife Ethel, Derald Beard wife Dorothy, William Beard wife Margie, Everett Beard wife Ruth, and Frank Beard.

She was a grand lady who never met a stranger without a smile on her face and will be greatly missed by her family. She was always full of spunk and maybe a little sass but always in a friendly way. She will also be greatly missed by many of her nephews and nieces.

Wright will be held at two pm Tuesday, March 8, 2022, at Crouse Funeral Home in Salem, with Roy Koduvalil officiating.  Burial will follow at the 1880 (Lovells Grove) Cemetery in Omega.  There will be a visitation on Tuesday at the funeral home from 11:30 a.m. until the time of the service.  Memorial contributions can be made to the Lovells Grove Christian Church and will be received at the funeral home.  Online condolences can be made at www.CrouseFH.com.
