I met Maggie when I was just a little girl. Every time I ever saw her she would call me by my first and middle name. She had a way of making everyone feel special and loved. She would sit with me for the longest time showing me how to make change at the cash register. My daddy was Henry Ford, Richards brother. She knew I'd grow up in a"cafe" and I would need to know how to give change. I will never forget how kindly she treated my brothers and me. She was truly one of a kind. I love you Maggie.

The mere mention of Ford's Cafe in Pearland conjures up the image of Margaret's friendly face. Condolences to the family.

My deepest condolences to the Family. Maggie will be missed, but always remembered. I had the privilege of working with Maggie at Fords when I was 15, and again in 2008. Maggie was always in a cheerful spirit and always smiling. I cannot remember not one day that she was not in a good mood. I last visited with her on Valentines Day 2014 (I bought a brown stuffed puppy) and went to see her at the nursing home. She remembered me, like yesterday. I will miss you Maggie, but will always remember the joy you brought me.

I do not ever not remember Maggie being a part of my life. According to her my uncle Calvin brought me to see her at Ford's when I was in diapers. Maggie's was always a joy in my life. She had a way of making everyone feel special, like you were the only kid on earth. Years ago when I was working as a Brookside police officer I stopped three car thieves in a stolen Cadillac in the middle of the night. I was getting them cuffed when I noticed this little grey car watching me. It was Maggie and she was waiting and watching to make sure that they did not get the best of me. Godspeed Maggie! I will always love you. James Gregory Meade

Bea and I worked together in Pearland and I met Maggie through Bea at Ford's Cafe. She always had a smile and lots of energy. The three of us were in the cafe when the announcement came that JFK had been shot. The entire Gonzales family was a blessing to everyone fortunate enough to know them. My heartfelt condolences go out to the entire family and especially to Bea who tirelessly devoted the past several years to Maggie. We should all have a sister like that. Rest in Peace, Maggie.

Thinking of and Praying for the Family during this time. Maggie not only worked at my PawPaw and Grannie's restaurant, she was also a part of our Ford Family. I knew her all my life and she was the few that would greet me by calling out loud and enthusiastic my first and middle name, followed by a HUGE smile and a HUGE hug every single time. :)
