Margaret Ann Lapre-Jolliffe

July 1, 1952 - January 24, 2022

Lapre-Jolliffe, Margaret Ann "Marge" On January 24th, 2022, the world lost it's beloved mother, Margaret (Marge) Ann Lapre-Jolliffe at the age of 69. Marge was born in Fort Dix, New Jersey to Jeanne McGurl & Peter Lapre on July 1st, 1952. She met her husband and father of her two children, Steven McGarry, when the two attended Fort Hamilton High School together. Marge had many careers during her life but none that she loved more than being a mother to her children who she loved fiercely. She would often share stories with them of the care she provided for her five younger siblings in their early years. In fact, Marge was so exceptional at being a mother that her children's friends would often adopt her as their second Mom, who they lovingly referred to as "Momma Marge." Marge had eagerly anticipated her most recent title, Nana, to her young grandson who she was able to meet prior to her passing. She is survived by her daughter, Christine McGarry (Robert Niedzwiecki); her grandson, Rowan; her siblings and their spouses; as well as many beloved nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by her parents; son, Sean McGarry; her ex-husband, Steven McGarry; and husband, Gerald Jolliffe. A celebration of life will be held on Saturday, February 12th, 2022 at 1pm at the Washburn- McReavy Edina Chapel. In lieu of flowers, please make a charitable donation to the Rare Disease Foundation in her memory (rarediseasefoundation.org/pages/...).
