Margaret Holley made a difference in the lives of her family and the lives of others. She never held flashy titles or positions. She just smiled and worked, but others knew that they could depend on her because of her strong and consistent work ethic!!! It’s amazing how a smile and a work ethic opened doors for her.

“Proverbs 22:1 says, “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold.” I have been occupied maintaining the name that I have, and I realized that whatever I do has an impact on those around me, whether if it is a good impact or a bad impact.
