*Obituary
Margaret Bell Fitzgibbons was reunited with her parents and siblings at 3:30 in the afternoon on June 1, 2020 at the age of 81.
She was born Margaret Bell Morgan in 1939 in Baird, TX to Tommy and Margurete Morgan.
She was the fifth of six children.
She married Robert Frank Fitzgibbons on July 9, 1953. They were devoted to each other for 66 years, through sickness and in health.
Together they have four children.
She lived most of her life in Big Spring where she was a devoted nurse for more than 30 years at both Scenic Mountain Medical Center and the VA Hospital.
She was a long-time member of Berea Baptist Church in Big Spring.
Mom loved to bake and made the best chocolate pie you will ever eat. She enjoyed having her family over for holidays and special occasions. Taking care of her flower garden full of roses was one of her favorite activities. Watching Texas Ranger games with dad was a favorite pastime of hers and something they did together for many years, even celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary at The Ballpark in Arlington.
She is survived by her husband Frank of Big Spring, children Mary, Bob (Tina), Wayne, and Karen; four grandchildren, four step-grandchildren, six great grandchildren, three step great grandchildren, and one grand dog, Molly.
She was preceded in death by her parents, stepfather W.G. "Pat" Patrick, two brothers, Jim and Tommy; three sisters Betty, Shirley, and Matchie; and two grand dogs Diamond and Ranger.
The family would like to say a special thank you to the ladies at Marcy Place Senior Living and Home Hospice of Big Spring for the excellent care you gave our mother.
Celebration of life is scheduled for 10am on June 6, 2020 at The Peace Chapel at Trinity Memorial Park in Big Spring, TX. Visitation will be at Myers and Smith Funeral Home Friday from 9am-9pm.
Arrangements are by Myers & Smith Funeral Home. Pay your respects online at www.myersandsmith.com
