Margaret Ruth Larson Curtin, 98, of Lake City passed away Sunday, April 23, 2017 at Lake City Care Center. She was born in Rochester, MN to Albert and Alma Larson on February 26, 1919.
Margaret attended public schools in Rochester and is where she lived all of her life. On September 1, 1936, Margaret married William Curtin in Cresco, Iowa. During WW II, when her husband was in the Navy and stationed overseas, she worked a variety of jobs in the food industry and worked for the Rochester Country Club.

Les Fields and The Turkey River All-stars played for her party. Margaret enjoyed ballroom dancing with her husband, camping, gardening, traveling and being with her family.
