Kerrville Margaret Ruby Pyle passed away in her Saviors arms on March 12, 2013 in Kerrville, TX at age 97 years. She was born on August 25, 1915 to Watson Storry and Emanuela Eva Emma Cerny in Minnesota and spent her childhood in the Austin, TX area.
Early life for her was far from , as she lost her Mother when only 7 years old and then found herself in charge of a home for her father and little brother, Robert Buddy. She carried out her duties faithfully, until marrying at age 19 to Mr. Lloyd Lady.
In 1933 to them was born a beautiful daughter they named Jacqueline and later, a son Michael.
Tragically, Lloyd died in1956 at age 48 of cancer, leaving her alone once more to care for her family. Again, she persevered and moved to Corpus Christi, TX to be close to her daughters family. Her previous banking experience allowed her to find sustaining work until marrying Mr. Glenn T. Pyle, a Houston geologist. They had over 20 years of happiness and spent summers in their lakeside home in Shell Knob, Missouri. Glenn passed away in 1990 and Margaret again became a widow for the next 23 years of life. She was sustained by loving family members all though this time and especially cherishes them all.
Throughout her long life she was a faithful member of the Methodist Church and donated a large organ she could no longer play to Kerrville First United Methodist Church some years ago. Other interest she had involved artistry, quilting and studying with various church groups.
Margaret leaves to mourn her loss a daughter, Jacqueline Norstrom, and husband Dr. Craig Norstrom son, Michael Lady and wife Linda
4 grandchildren, Sandra Adamson, Pamela Norstrom, Stacy Harry and Jennifer Moore 9 greatgrandchildren, and recently, 1 greatgreat grandchild.
