Help Margaret and her Family
Donation protected
This fall, Margaret Halliwell, a beloved and truly exceptional human being, was diagnosed with CJD a rapidly moving and rare terminal neurological condition.
Margaret has taught piano for the last 40 years and is widely recognized as one of the best teachers in Canada. Her love and mentorship has extended far beyond the piano. To everyone who has ever met her, she is one of the most warm and gracious individuals you will ever meet, a patient and generous friend, an incredibly loving mother, partner, and a surrogate parent to many.
We know that Margaret means a lot to many people!
