In 1982, Bert and Margaret established B&M Printing in Cumberland, Rhode Island. Together, passionately, they built a strong foundation of providing exceptional customer service in printing, graphic design and copying services over an expanse of 23 years. In 2005, Bert and Margaret retired. Their legacy continues today and is still thriving as a family owned and operated small business.
Those who touch our lives stay in our hearts forever. We begin to remember not just that she died, but that she lived, and her life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.
A private service will be held at a later date. Arrangements are under the direction of the Holt Funeral Home, 510 So. Main St., Woonsocket.
