Margo Beth Boutwell, Born August 13, 1944 in St. Louis MO, and passed away on January 26, 2022, while vacationing in one of her favorite places to be, Massanutten Ski Resort, Va. alongside her family. She was a beloved wife to Richard who was the love of her life for nearly 49 years.

She was a loving mother to her daughters, Donna (Andrew), Amy (Mike), Jennifer (Rich), Lisa (Chris) and Kelly (Bobby) and was the best Grandma to her Grandkids that she adored beyond words. Kendall, 27. Sydney, 23. DJ, 23. Nathan, 19. Morgan, 18. Michael, 18. Colin, 15. Hannah, 14 and Jill, 14.

She is also survived by her brother-in-Law Keith (Ardie) and Nephew Christian of Waupaca WI. She is preceded in death by her parents Robert Clay Edson, Sr., and Ruth Edson. As well as her brother Robert Clay Edson, Jr.

Margo was the soul of her entire family. Sharing her life with her husband, who was everything to her. They loved to travel the country together. She loved her country and was a true patriot and loved the red, white, and blue. She loved the 4th of July and celebrating with family and fireworks (the louder the better). Her true passion was being at the beach and being near the ocean. It was her happy place. In 2015, she and her husband moved from the family home they shared together with their children for over 35 years in Waldorf and fulfilled their lifelong dream of moving to the beach. She also loved to be in the mountains, especially when it was snowing.

She loved to swim in the ocean and dive in the waves. She enjoyed kayaking, skiing, and bike riding. One of her favorites was to camp with her husband and take their boat out. As the mother to 5 daughters, she spent many years as a Dance and Gymnastics mom. She loved to see her girls on stage and have their time shine. It made her so proud. She was a 2nd mom to many others through dance and friends of her daughters. She was loved dearly by anyone who came to know her.

As the lifeblood of her family, she will be extremely missed every day. Whenever we watch the sunset, we will think of her and know she is in heaven with the ones she has missed the most.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Melson's Funeral Home 32013 Long Neck Rd. Millsboro, DE. On Thursday February 3, 2022, at 10:00 am. with a memorial service at 11:00 am. Flowers are welcome, as she wanted lots of flowers. She would also honored with any donation made in her name to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital or to any Equestrian Rescue as she loved horses.
