Margaret Eileen (Young) Davenport

Margaret Eileen Davenport, 100, went to be with Jesus on January 13, 2024.  She was the daughter of the late George and Lulu Bardo Young and was born in Linden on April 14, 1923.  She was married to Galen S. Davenport on January 18, 1947.

She graduated from Jersey Shore High School, Class of 1941 and may possibly be the last surviving class member.

She is predeceased by her husband, Galen, on September 29, 2002; three brothers, John, Charles, and James; and one sister, Eleanor Young Weikle.

Margaret is survived by two daughters, Eileen Davenport of Hughesville and Karen Cizewski (Stan) of Montoursville.  Also surviving is her grandson, Josh Bahr (Michelle) of Montoursville and two great grandchildren, Lauren Bahr and Ryan Bahr.  She is also survived by one brother, George (Gerry) of Greenville, SC and many nieces and nephews.

Margaret enjoyed sewing, quilting, flower gardening, word search puzzle, playing the piano, cats, and reading, especially her Bible.

According to her wishes, there will be no service.  Burial will be at the convenience of the family at Twin Hills Memorial Park.  

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a memorial be sent to Lycoming Animal Protection Society (LAPS), 630 Wildwood Boulevard, Williamsport, PA 17701.
