Margaret Elizabeth Wylie of Springfield, MO passed away in her home May 31st, 2010. She was born in Springfield on December 28th, 1926 to Clyde and Laura "Shug" Theuer and was one of four children-Robin (deceased), Jerrol (deceased), and Dorinda. After going through School in Springfield and getting her degree from Missouri State Teachers College (now known as Missouri State University) she served her country proudly in the Women's Army Corps. While serving, she met the love of her life, A Marine Corps Captain named John Wylie, whom she would remain happily married to until his passing in 1999. They were an example of how marriage and love should be for their family and the rest of the world to see. She then went on to a career in Elementary Education and had a lasting and positive effect on many more people. After her husband passed away, she was an even stronger example of strength, kindness, acceptance, giving, and love for all that knew her and loved her. She always had a warm smile and a kind word for anyone she met, not to mention treats and hugs for her two adoring Grandchildren any time she saw them. She is survived by a sister, Dorinda; a son and loving family: Ben, Kim, Delainey, and Quin; a stepdaughter, Sandy Pollard; and many others who carry her spirit with them. We will all miss you very much. A Memorial Visitation will be held Tuesday, June 8th from 6:00pm to 8:00pm at Gorman-Scharpf Funeral Home-Brentwood Chapel in Springfield, MO. Interment will be at a later date at the Missouri Veterans Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations in her name to either The Kitchen (1630 N. Jefferson, Springfield, MO 65803) of Southwest Missouri Humane Society (3161 W. Norton Road, Springfield, MO 65803) would be appreciated.
