October 25, 1928 ~ June 14, 2024 (age 95)

A feisty and much-loved lady has passed away.

“I’m almost 100 you know, and I’ve seen it all and done it all.”

Marg was Mom to Deb Tully and Dorothy Tully-Petersen, Gramma Marg to Derek and Curtis Petersen and Karl Waffler, and sister to surviving sibling Nancy Zettel, who she often said was her “Best Friend”.

The rest of her very large and close family includes all of the Lessard Clan of Kitchener/Waterloo, and the Tullys and Lillicoes of the Peterborough area.

Marg was a brilliant lady who skipped every other grade in school and finished Business College to join the work world at 15. She had many jobs in her career but especially loved supporting the students of Trent University as College Secretary at Peter Robinson College.

Marg was a very active member of the Legion, having served as a Corporal in the Militia, and was a Silver Cross recipient.

Marg lived at Applewood Retirement Residence in Peterborough for a number of years, and got a kick out of the fact that the building had originally been a popular Disco, which she’d seen first-hand!

Most recently she was a resident of Butternut Manor in Uxbridge, where she was noted for exclaiming, “I’m back you lucky people, now let’s get this party started!” She’ll be missed!

Celebrations of Life will be held Monday June 24th, 2024 from 2-4 pm at the Delta Hotel in Waterloo (110 Erb St), and Wednesday June 26th, 2024 from 1-3 pm at Highland Park Funeral Centre in Peterborough (2510 Bensfort Rd), where interment will follow.
