Much love to you - Jean and Thom as you mourn .  May you be comforted with many special memories of your mother at this time.
Grace and peace,
Peter and Laura Dobrowolski

Some of my fondest memories at Camp Mini-Yo-We were the wonderful swimming lessons from Goldie.  She was so kind, patient, and incredibly encouraging as we excitedly jumped into chilly Mary Lake to receive her instructions.   

And the care and concern she showed for us was clearly evident in her career as a nurse.    The tenderness and compassion she had for her patients, and specifically the babies and their families in the NICU, had such a positive impact.    

Thank you Goldie.  For your love, compassion, and your incredible faith.   You have given us an amazing example of a life well lived, and we thank you for it.   

Margaret,may you Rest In Peace,you and Gerry were so kind and loving to Rob and I.which we both appreciated and loved in kind.with many memories of you and his cousins.
With love Muriel and Rob Kenneth Chamberlain Walsh.

Sending love and condolences to Jean, Thom and their children - knowing that saying an earthly goodbye to a mother and a grandmother is so significant.  Thinking of you all.

I feel I have known Marg and Gerry all my life.   I remember family visits at the Wishing Well home.  Marg was a very good friend to our Mom (Alice Wilson)   Marg and Alice were expecting babies the same year 1971.  We watched David, Cathy, Jean and Laura grow up.  Our paths crossing both at church and school.    When I married Phil (40 years ago this June) Marg very kindly had a bridal shower for us at the Wicklow home in Bridlewood.
When our Mom passed away at the young age of 50 Marg and Gerry were the first people to come by the house and offer their condolences and support.  
We were not able to attend the  memorial service today but watched the live stream tonight.   It was so inspiring to hear how Marg lived out her life.   I hope I can be the supportive Gramma that she was. 💕

Grandma, your love, resiliency after so many health challenges, your never ending generosity, your love for continual learning by your children and grand children from technology to fashion, and everything in between made you truly a legendary best grandma. 

I had the honour of having you as my grandma for over three decades, and seeing you be a great grandma for four years! You were always a rock, prayed for me daily, and support my continual growth and dreams, being the best cheerleader that grew the confidence and the blessings for me to be who I am today.

I hope that if I have the opportunity to be a grandma or great grandma / GG I follow your example to learn from those younger than me to be the best that I can be for them and do whatever it takes to support all of them with continual love, prayer, hospitality, and generosity as you demonstrated to me for just over three decades.

We ♥️ you

Dear Dr Jean and family, Dear Cathy, Mike and family,

May you rest in peace, Mother Margaret Chamberlain. I may never have met you, but thanks to you, the Lord gave us your lovely daughter, Dr Jean Chamberlain, who taught me at Uganda Christian University, MPHL/STM. 

You fought the good fight and kept the faith. May the mercy of Christ be with you always.

We thank the Lord for gifting the world your mum, who gifted you to us.

We commiserate with you.

Love Heidi

She won heaven while on earth, due to her good deeds of charity especially, mother's of Africa. Truely, she fought a good fight of faith. I am confident, angels received her with joy!  2 Timothy 4:7-8. I can only pray for the remaining souls on earth to emulate her example! Rest in eternal peace our mother of mothers!

To Jean and Thom and families our heartfelt prayers and deepest sympathy to you all.  May the Lord today, and in the days ahead, grant you comfort and strength in the loss of your dear mother, and sister in Christ.   With our love and prayers - Bob Hamilton and family.

It is a great gift of God that we have had the blessing of Margaret’s presence for so many years.
My first recollection of Margaret was soon after her marriage to Gerald. As we got to know her it was clear that someone special had joined our family. Even now I can remember her generous smile and infectious laugh and the spirit of joy that brightened any family gathering where she was present then and through many years to follow. 
Margaret and Gerald became continuing life models for me and then later for Becki and me as we began our lives together. Their pattern of not allowing modest beginnings to limit them but rather to risk changes and aim high was a great encouragement. More than that though, their continuing desire to glorify God by using their skills and resources to grow His kingdom was an inspiration.
Margaret leaves the legacy of a Godly life for us to imitate. We have lost a precious wife, mom, grandmother, great-grandmother, family member, caregiver and friend but what a joyful addition to heaven she is! 


Dear Chamberlains and Family, Our condolences on the passing of your dear Mom.  We have so many wonderful memories of her over the years and she was a true inspiration. Sending virtual hugs and prayers  for you all. 
Love, Hugh and Lee Sutherland and family 

David,Catherine,Jean and Laura we were saddened to hear of the homecoming of your wonderful mother.  Our deepest condolences to you all and the extended family.  We have fond memories of your parents.  Love and hugs Mark and Brenda Pennells

As I read the thoughtful and uplifting condolences, it’s hard to keep the tears from falling. Margie had been a dear dear friend for the last 40 plus years that passed all to quickly. 

We were drawn together through our mutual love of Global missions , and our desire to pray for our Crossworld workers which happened most Tuesdays when we were both available. Margie’s health then made it harder to meet, but we never stopped praying for each other until a few months ago. 

I know that Margie looked forward to seeing her Lord and Saviour that  usually was part of our conversations. Her desire was to do for Him anything she could, and to share Him with family and friends. Ministry was a love and never a job. Whether spending holiday travelling overseas with medical missions or serving in any role at church , sharing that beautiful smile I will never forget. 

Sending love and prayers to all her treasured family, and to her darling Ger who needs our continued prayer for his failing health. 

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: And he delighteth in his way.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭37‬:‭23‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Love JD and Barb 



What a joy it has been to be a part of Marg's life!  She lit up a room with her presence.  Always encouraging, always pointing others to Christ and always giving God the glory for what He has done.  She loved her family fiercely and loved to talk about her children and grandchildren.  The faithful, loving marriage of Ger and Marg was a beautiful example to all who knew them.  Their love and care for each other was inspiring.  We have cherished memories of holidays spent around the Houghton table, with meals so lovingly prepared by Dave's mom.  The laughter and joy will never be forgotten.  Marg was such a prayer warrior and prayed for all of her family every day.  Her presence on earth will be greatly missed, but we rejoice that she is in heaven, face to face with her Saviour!

I have known Margaret for 44 years and met her at Camp Mini-yo-we and discovered we lived near one another in Agincourt.  She always was willing to show me hospitality & respectful support when I was a young adult in my 20's.  I always felt welcome in the Chamberlain home.  When I became Jean & Laura's teacher at PBSA she always respected & appreciated my new role.  She was someone I could talk to, feel safe with and she encouraged me whenever we met over the years.  She is a role model of graciousness & faithfulness.

So sorry Cathy and family for your loss. It is so comforting to know we will see our loved ones again. Underneath you are the everlasting arms of Jesus. May Hs peace, comfort, guidance and strength enable you in those difficult days ahead. With our love and prayers, Sandy and Lorne

Marg was always so positive. Marg and Gerry would often meet us at Red Lobster and we would get caught up with family and business. Although Gerry was the Crossword mission Board member Marg would want an update on what is happening with our various workers around the world. She was always ready to assist our workers with good advice.  We loved to exchange stories about our families. To say goodbye was a real privilege last week. We will see her at her home in heaven   She will be missed.  JD Smith

My wife and I have been so privileged to have Gerry and Marg in our lives, beginning when Gerry joined the Crossworld Board of Directors, and continuing over many years since then through their prayer and financial support of our ministry with Crossworld. 

What stands out to us from their lives is their generosity and their prayers. They have been one of our strongest ministry partners in both those realms. Marg would always come to our home to pray for Crossworld whenever Gerry would come for a Board meeting. 

We rejoice that Marg is now enjoying life like never before with Jesus, and we pray for the family as they continue to journey with their dear dad.  
Warmest regards in Christ, Dale and Jerusha Losch

Thinking of you all during this difficult time.

My memories of Aunt Marg make me smile!   She was always interested in how you were doing and she took the time to listen!  She was so generous and her laughter was refreshing and infectious too.   Where ever she went, her faith and generous spirit were evident to all.  She will be missed and our memories of her, treasured.  Hugs to all of her dear family,  Love Joy Anne
