Bill > SR0187

This resolution mourns the death of Margaret Ann Timoney, a Springfield resident who passed away on March 8, 2025, and celebrates her life of community service, faith, and family. Born in 1936 to Harold and Mary Madelyn Hannah Carter, Margaret was a retired city employee who was deeply committed to her local community, volunteering extensively at various schools, churches, and charitable organizations such as Meals on Wheels and the Senior Citizens Center. She was known for her strong Catholic faith, attending daily mass, her love of numbers and accounting, and her passion for baking (particularly her famous gooey butter cake). Margaret was proud of her Irish heritage, having been named Springfield's Irishwoman of the Year in 2016, and was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. The resolution, passed by the Illinois Senate, expresses deep sympathy for her family and recognizes her significant contributions to her community, extending condolences to her surviving children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. The document concludes by affirming that a copy of the resolution will be presented to her family as an expression of the Senate's deepest sympathy.
