She was a lifelong educator, starting her career in a proverbial one-room schoolhouse in rural South Dakota. In 1968, Margaret moved to Southern California, where she taught first grade and special education in the Los Angeles City schools after obtaining her Master's Degree. She united in marriage with Alfred Bennett in 1969, and together they made their home in both Southern California and Pickerel Lake, SD. Upon retiring to Incline Village in 1987, she was active in the Catholic Church, Bridge Club, Women's Club and private tutoring.
