About Margaret C. Bauer

Margaret was born in 1947, the eldest of five children. She grew up in Maine and relocated to Ohio after she married.  She was always fun-loving and independent. She had three children for whom she was an inspiration.

After her marriage ended, she raised her three children mostly on her own. This required hard work and long hours at often multiple jobs. Money was always tight and getting ahead turned out to be an elusive goal.

Nevertheless, her hard work inspired her children to strive to succeed in life. She died at the very young age of 49 of an illness that may not have taken her life if she had health insurance and was able to visit a doctor without fear of the cost. Her family established the scholarship in memory of her to help women who are struggling to make a better life for themselves and their children.
