August 24, 1939 – February 3, 2018
Margaret J. (Driscoll) Hopkins, 78, passed away on February 3, 2018 in Indianapolis. Margaret was born on August 24, 1939 to the late John and Sarah Driscoll in Newfoundland, Canada.
Margaret adored playing the piano. Her family loved listening to her play. She enjoyed knitting and assembled many beautiful items for her family and loved ones. Margaret looked forward to being outdoors to work in her garden and watch the wildlife, especially the rabbits play in her yard. Margaret never missed a garage sale because she never knew what she would find or miss. Margaret’s most valuable hobby was spending time with her family and friends. Margaret was a member of Radiant Life Christian Church.
