Margaret Pancurak was born at home on May 23, 1926. For the past 59 years, she's been married to John, and they will celebrate their 60th anniversary in January 2007. She's lived in Port Vue, Pennsylvania, for most of her life, in the home she and John built, the same home where she raised her daughters, Donna and Cheryl, spoiled her granddaughters, Beth and Lynn, and laughed at jokes of her son-in-law Tom.

Her clearest memories are from when she was young, a time when people didn't have the many conveniences we have today, yet she still believes those "were the good old days."
