We feel especially privileged to have been able to work beside her, hear her perspective and grow with her as we embarked upon the job of re-establishing/improving the Kaiser OMPT Fellowship. Margaret had an immense impact on the profession and on many people personally.  She will be greatly missed.  Margaret Anderson passed peacefully on March 22, 2023.  Here are a few videos that were presented at her ‘Celebration of Life’:  Remembrances of Margaret and the Full Celebration of Life video
