Meg worked at the Abington National Bank for 14 years where she met and stayed in touch with many friends. Gram loved her back yard pool and welcomed family, friends and friends of friends to join her in the summer fun. She vacationed in the Bahamas and Florida with her husband, Rich. Meg loved to knit and knitted hats, gloves, mittens, slippers and Irish sweaters for many of her extended family. She was an avid reader and would swap books with many in her reading circle.
