Margaret TESSIER

Margaret Tessier 1922-2011
Margaret Delia Fleck, formerly of Scappoose, died July 7, 2011, peacefully in the hospital surrounded by family. She was 88.

Margaret Delia Tessier was born Sept. 30, 1922, in Bannock, Mont., to William and Florence Tessier, and was the sixth of eight children.

She lived through the Roaring 20s, the Great Depression, and World War II.

In 1940 she married George J. Fleck, and they eventually made their home in Oregon.

Throughout her lifetime she enjoyed cooking, canning, gardening, dancing, knitting, crocheting, traveling and crossword puzzles.

Always a caring person, she built an addition on to her home and moved her elderly parents from Montana to Oregon so she could take care of them herself.

A wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, mentor and friend, she will be dearly missed by family and friends alike.

She is survived by her grandchildren, Dean, Jean, Mark, Shannon, Kimberly, and Darryl; great-grandchildren, Dana, Jennifer, Elyse, Rylee, Sydney, Devin, Natalie, Aerius, Kamryn, and Rachel; brother, Harley; sister Lelah; and a number of nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, George; sons, Jim and George; life partner, Roy Forsberg; sisters, Helen, Irene, and Cary; and brothers, Victor and Dalton.

Viewing will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, July 28, at Skyline Memorial Gardens, 4101 N.W. Skyline Blvd., Portland.
 

A memorial service will be at 1 p.m. Friday, July 29, at Skyline Memorial Gardens.
