She also says goodbye to a close circle of loving friends whom she cherished greatly.

Margaret graduated from New Braunfels High School and married her high school sweetheart, Joe. She went on to receive a Bachelor of Science degree in library science and after taking on librarian positions in Lakewood, Colorado,; Schreiner College in Kerrville; and Texas Lutheran College (now Texas Lutheran University), she later accepted a position as assistant librarian at Seguin High School in Seguin.

After retiring from her position as head librarian at Seguin High School, she spent time traveling with Joe, enjoying her adventurous spirit that included parasailing in Hawaii, scuba diving in Aruba and driving along the back roads of Germany. But her greatest joy came from spending time with her five grandchildren Kevin, Kyle, Reagan, Mitchell and Sierra. Her cup runneth over.

A celebration of life will take place at 2 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 6 at St. Paul Lutheran Church Chapel in New Braunfels, 181 S. Santa Clara St. She asked her friends and family to remember the good times. She lived her dash to the fullest. Those wishing to express their thoughts may sign the guestbook at www.puenteandsons.com.
