Margaret Cecilia Oslanski was born June 4, 1928, the only child of Steve Jr. and Margaret Binges. Margaret lived on the family farm in 2-17. She rode horseback to school and attended the John Joe School. Charles Oslanski courted Margaret via horsebanck, they were married on February 25, 1946 and then moved to 1-17 Oslanski farm. She worked side by side with Charlie on the farm raising livestock and grain. Her pride and joy were her parklike flower garden and yard, which she spent many hours attending. Her home was always open to all family members for a meal or a homemade treat. Many grandchildren spent countless hours visiting with her. 

She will be sadly missed by her family and many friends.
