In Memory
Margaret Jane McCombs
Nov. 12, 1924 - Jun. 2, 2017
SOUTH BEND - Margaret McCombs, 92, died peacefully at home Friday afternoon, June 2, in the company of her son, Micheal, as she wished. Her husband of 65 years, Carl Robert McCombs, preceded her in death in 2008.
Affectionately known as Jane, she was a devoted daughter, a cherished sister, a beloved and loving wife, a caring mother, an adored aunt, a steadfast friend, and a gentle person.
She liked gin and tonics and cashews, word jumbles and word finds, Bossa Nova and Brad Mehldare, Elmone Leonard, and David Sedaris, Kill Bill and Casablanca. She did not like prune juice, Frank Sinatra or It's a Wonderful Life.
Jane's memory lives on in the kindnesses many received throughout her life. She lived her final days as she did all others, with humor, equanimity and grace.
