Margaret Eliza Weaver Braun, 89, of Shadyside, OH, died Sunday December 31, 2006 in the Shadyside Care Center.

She was born September 17, 1917 in Orange County, VA, a daughter of the late Theodore and Minnie Bamford Weaver.

Margaret was a homemaker, a member of the First Christian Church, Disciples of Christ, Shadyside, where she taught Sunday School, was a 20 year Volunteer at BCH and was a special grandmother to many Shadyside children.

In addition to her parents Margaret was preceded in death by her husband Cecil H. Braun on November 17, 1977, and an infant son, four sisters, Emily, Thelma, Sarah and Noble and two brothers, Theodore and John.

A devoted Christian, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. Her sense of humor endeared her to everyone. Always foremost in her mind was the health, safety, and happiness of her daughters and their families.
In her own words, she carried her girls "under my heart". She will be dearly missed by Josie Thompson and Norma Jean Core, as well as many other friends.

Mother now rests peacefully, without worry, pain or struggles, in the arms of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The family wishes to thank the Shadyside Emergency Squad and the Staffs of Belmont Community Hospital and the Shadyside Care Center.

Dear Braun Family –

I am sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Braun. As you may remember, your mom babysat my brother and me she made the best Spaghetti O’s when we were growing up in Shadyside and also was always at church when I was there on Sunday’s. Although I haven’t seen her in years, my mom would always mention to me when she talked to her that she’d always ask about me. Your mom played a special role in my early years and I know she did in many others’ as well.

My condolences,

Dave Boyd
