Margaret
(nee Fair) On February 1, 2014 of Washington Twp. Age 76. Devoted mother of Thomas M. (Kristina), Joseph (Annamarie) and Christopher S. Murtha (Joanne). Loving grandmother of David, Ian, Christopher, Raymond, Lauren and Thomas. Dear sister of Charles and the late Dr. William Fair.
Margaret worked in the Government Documents office in the Rowan University library for 31 years. She enjoyed helping the students and working with her colleagues in the library. She adored their company and often talked about them to her family. She loved the Philadelphia Flyers and followed them loyally. Peggy, as she liked to be called, was a faithful parishioner of Saint Charles Borromeo Church where she could be regularly found at mass and adoration. She was a great mother of three grateful sons. She was always there for them when needed, even as they grew into adults. She adored her six grandchildren that were the love of her live. She attended as many of their school events, birthday parties, vacation trips, and life milestones as any one person possibly could. As any good grandmother should, she enjoyed telling her friends and coworkers all about their accomplishments and latest endeavors. She was truly a special person. One of a kind. We’ll miss her….
Relatives and friends are invited to attend her viewing Wednesday 8:15-10:15 am at the Egizi Funeral Home 119 Ganttown Rd., Washington Twp. Mass of Christian Burial 11:00 am at St. Charles Borromeo RC Church, Washington Twp. Interment private. Condolences may be shared with the family at www.egizifuneral.com

We have all lost a very special lady who loved her family and was so very proud of them. We all enjoyed her stories about all of you.
I will always remember our Tuesday and Wednesday morning critiques of Dancing With the Stars. Tristan was our favorite professional and we always hoped he'd get a partner who could go the distance.
My deepest sympathy to all her family and friends. Know that Peggy will be missed and remembered with love.

I was so sad to hear about Peggy’s sudden passing. She was a wonderful mother to her loving children and a close and dear friend to me. She was family to me and my daughters “Aunt Peggy”. The kindness through the years, from Peggy and her family, my daughter and I will never forget. I still recall her taking my daughter to grade school when I was sick. This past June, Peggy, Joe and Anna helped with my daughter's graduation party. I will cherish our talks and her advice. I am grateful for the GSC owl that she gave me. She was a true friend. My daughter, Mary Colleen and I love and will miss her.
Our condolences, to her family and friends. Mary Colleen and I are always here for you.
With prayers, Mary Ann

On behalf of my family I'd like to thank everyone from Rowan for their kind words and for sharing their love of our mother. She was lucky to be part of your family for 31 years. She liked it there so much I thought she would never retire! As long as she could walk she was determined to go to work. She loved telling us stories about all of you as much as she loved telling you about us. Thank you all for being part of her life.
