We Remember
HAUB, Margaret Alice
November 10, 1928 — March 12, 2021
It is with sadness that we announce that Margaret Haub, went home to be with the Lord on March 12, 2021. At age 92, her passing was peaceful while she was surrounded by family.
Born November 10, 1928 in Edmonton, AB, Margaret was raised in Athabasca, AB until age 16. Then, she resided with nuns, back in Edmonton, while she received her education. In Prince Rupert, BC she worked at the Miller Bay Hospital and when her children arrived she lived in Vancouver, BC. In 1968, she came to Kelowna, BC and stayed for over a decade before returning to Prince Rupert, then in July 2020 she came to stay in Kelowna.
Margaret was filled with compassion and care for others, she always made sure that those around her were taken care of. She often provided for fundraisers with quilts and jewellery. She had a knack for staying aware of everyone’s comings and going. And, she invited everyone to holiday dinners, when she was no longer able to continue with the preparations, she still invited all and had the dinners catered.
Margaret was bold, independent, and strong-willed. Her take-charge personality will be dearly missed.
She is survived by her children: Andrew Pinchbeck, Patricia (Chris) Rhoads, and Terry Haub; her grandchildren: Jeremie Davies (spouse), Tom (Rhonda) Oostenburg, Barbara, Tanisha Thick, Montaya Steer, and Christopher; her 6 great-grandchildren; niece Cheryl Lamoureux; and numerous cousins. She was predeceased by her sister Rita Scott and eldest son Walter Haub.
The family would like to acknowledge the palliative care team, Dr. Mackel, and Dr. Zwardon for their care and attention to Margaret.
A Graveside Service will be held at the family plot in the Athabasca Cemetery on Thursday, July 8, 2021.

My deepest condolences to you and your family. Your Mom was a very special lady. Growing up your friends Mothers, also became our Mother kind of by proxy. That is how I feel about Margaret. I love her and she will always have a special place in my heart.
Some memories I have is her talent in painting ceramics. Going into the basement in Rutland was always an fun adventure. Then later when I came to live with you in Prince Rupert, on one of our many car drives to Terrace how she would practically slam on the breaks if she saw a tin can or pop bottle on the side of the road. Oh my, and who will ever forget her laugh!! What a contagious laugh. I can still hear her now.
I love you Margaret and will miss you.
