Margaret Kennedy

August 12, 1934 - May 26, 2018

Kennedy, Margaret, 83, of Galloway Township, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 26, 2018. She was born in Buffalo, New York, on August 12, 1934, the daughter of Grace and Julius Ferrand. She married her high school sweetheart and husband of 62 years, Joseph Kennedy (deceased), in 1952. She is survived by her seven children, Stephen, Mary, Christine, Joseph, Grace, Clare, and Elizabeth; 13 grandchildren; and five great grandchildren. Margaret devoted her life to her husband, children and grandchildren. She created a close-knit family, and her home was the center of many happy gatherings and celebrations, especially for the holidays. When her youngest child started school, Margaret went to school to earn a B.A. in speech pathology. After working with children as a speech therapist for a few years, she returned to Montclair State College to pursue a degree in French Literature, fulfilling her dream to connect to her roots. She studied at the Sorbonne University for a semester and lived with a French family. She returned to France many times with her husband, Joe, to see the country and engage with the French people. She was a member of the Alliance Française, which met in her home to speak French and enjoy French cuisine. She was also an avid reader, loved watching mysteries and enjoyed swimming. Margaret was a wonderful and loving wife, mother, and grandmother, a dear friend, a dedicated student, a devout Catholic, and was always kind and giving. She will be remembered for her love of family and strong Catholic faith. Private burial service at Holy Cross Cemetery in Mays Landing.
