Margaret Lois (Bray) Goff passed away peacefully on December 22, 2020 at Southeast Colorado Hospital and Long Term Care in Springfield, Colorado. She was born August 3, 1932 at Ft. Lyon, Colorado. “Margo” was one of eight children born to Vernie and Maude Bray. Vernie was a chauffeur at Ft. Lyon and Maude worked in the laundry. The family lived on the short cut to Ft. Lyon and the family home is still there. Margo had the distinction of being born in an elevator at the Ft. Lyon VA facility.

Margo worked many years as a nurse and retired from the Ft. Lyon VA. She was able to enjoy several years of family and friends after her retirement. She had a precious giving heart. Her greatest joys were reading, cooking, crocheting, and various crafts throughout the years.

Margo is survived by her last remaining sibling, Jimmie Lee Bray of Santa Barbara, CA; last remaining aunt, Pattie Milbradt Bray; and is also survived by her three daughters, Mary (Rob) Thaxton of Peoria, AZ, Melinda Metzger of Colorado Springs, CO, and Marlene (Dennis) West of Las Animas, CO.
