Margaret S. Costello "Peggy," long time Barrington, NJ resident, passed on August 9, 2017, at the age of 90. Peggy was predeceased by her parents, Andrew and Isobel Christie; a sister, Norma Cassey; and, her loving husband, of over 62 years, Thomas E. Costello. She is survived by her children: Denise (Jack) Maher, Thomas S. Costello and Robert D. (Beck) Costello; her grandchildren: Christie Chandler and Muriel Maher; her great grandchildren: Elise and R.J. Chandler. Also surviving is her sister, Eleanor (Ed) Vekony and numerous nieces and nephews.
Peggy loved to garden, read and travel. She loved the sound of waves crashing on the beach or the sound sitting by a babbling brook. She thought her children and grandchildren were so talented and her great grandchildren were geniuses. She encouraged all of us to be whatever we wanted. Peg was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of Haddonfield for many years.
