Mary Margaret Wilson Daniel was born April 20, 1911, and went to Heaven April 10, 2010. Mary Margaret was born in Cumby, Texas, to John Phillip and Nevada Lee (Cowan) Wilson. She had six brothers and sisters who preceded her: Pearl Clayton, Murry Wilson, Clever Pullen, Adele Pullen, Hansel Kemp Wilson, and Richard Lee Wilson.

Margaret moved to Tahlequah in 1931. After graduating from Forman High School in Forman, Ark., she attended Northeastern State Teachers College for three years. She met and married the love of her life, Samuel Johnson Daniel, on Sept. 18, 1937. Sam was an original enrollee of Cherokee Nation. Sam preceded her in death on May 31, 1994.  Margaret gained a strong love for the Cherokee people, their thought and ways. In 1947, they brought a son into their life and gave him a chance in life: David Michael "Mike" Daniel, who survives Margaret. Margaret and Sam loved and cherished Mike through their lives.

Margaret (Aunt Margaret) is survived by her son, Mike Daniel, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, great and great-great.

Margaret loved people, her families, the Wilsons and the Danielses and her extended families. She loved her First United Methodist Church family, where she had been a member for 78 years. She loved Jesus and God and loved praying for people in their time of need.

Margaret loved nature, the seasons, and working in her yard, reading, and going to church and Sunday school and various organizations, where she could talk and visit. Her organizations were C.I.H.U. Sunday School Class, First United Methodist Women, Widows Group, Ruth Circle, Democratic Women, Octogenarian of the First United Methodist Church, Iris Garden Club, American Legion, and VFW.

Margaret loved life and everybody she knew. She had three special friends, Ima Rogers, Agnus Walker and Mary Geasland.

We will miss Mary Margaret, Mom, Aunt Margaret, but we all know she is with everybody she had been longing to be with again. We loved you and we know you loved us with all your heart.
