Margaret Currin

Margaret Nell Currin Margaret Currin, 91, of East Bernard, Texas passed away Sunday, December 4, 2016 at her home following a brief illness. Margaret was born on March 13, 1925, in Bristol, TN, to the late George L. and Nora Belle Smithson Booher. Margaret was raised in Tennessee. She married Frank Ray Currin in May 15, 1966 in South Carolina. They have resided in East Bernard since 1980. An animal lover all her life, Margaret enjoyed riding horses and going to her children’s horse shows. When she wasn’t working in her large vegetable garden, she was on the back porch sharing the sunshine with the cats and dogs. Frank and Margaret would also be seen at many local dances, swaying to the music. She had a generous spirit and always warm welcome to join her in the kitchen for coffee. These things describe the person that Margaret was, but the most fitting definition of her life was that she was an amazing mother to her children, grandmother to her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Margaret was a member of the First United Methodist Church in East Bernard. In addition to her parents, Margaret is preceded in death by her brothers, Ralph Booher and George L.
