Margaret Ellen Mueller

September 1, 1927 - January 13, 2022

Margaret Ellen Mueller passed away peacefully at her home in early January, 2022. She is the loving mother of Laurie (Roger Matthews) Kirchen and Klaren (Chuck Willey) Mueller; devoted grandmother of Jennifer (Shawn) Knutson, Gregory (Megan) Kirchen; dearest great grandmother of Riley James and Delaney Lauren Kirchen, Madelyn Hope and Emma Margaret Knutson; cherished sister of Mary Ann Hancock (the late Lawson). She joins, in heaven, her husband and the love of her life, Roderick Jerome Mueller as well as her beloved daughters Bonnie Lynn and Ellen Frances. Being a graduate of Florida State College for Women, later Florida State University, in Tallahassee, Margaret never forgot her Southern roots. She was an artist to her core, writing poetry, playing piano, painting and sketching. She loved a quiet forest, smooth jazz, glorious sunsets and the beauty of a simple flower. She had a soft spot in her heart for dogs and chocolate eclairs. Even in the hardest of times, she was kind and friendly, greeting every day with, “Good morning, Jesus!” She is deeply missed by her family and many friends.
