Margo A. Riddlebaugh, 74, of Williamsburg, passed away Thursday, March 24, 2022, at her home. Margo was born April 7, 1947 in Detroit, MI. As an infant, Margo relocated to Elk Rapids where she was raised on the family cherry farm (David Anderson Cherry Farm), and graduated from Elk Rapids High School.

Although she loved the Great Lakes in Michigan, she could never stay away from the Florida sunshine for long. She was a huge NASCAR and Indy racing fan, and was chairman of the Harry Gant Fan Club out of Daytona, Florida. She was selfless above all else, always making sure everyone around her was fed and happy. However, nothing made her happier than the joy of holding a baby.

Margo had three children: Richard (Christine) McCarty, Melissa (Dennis) Penrod, and Angela Gleason; seven grandchildren: Jake, Joe, Savanah, Hatti, Josh, Justin, and Aaron; and two great-grandchildren: Isabella and Jameson.  She is also survived by: two nephews, many close cousins, and friends that were like family.

Margo was preceded in death by: her parents, David and Janet Anderson; sister, Janet April; and son, Richard McCarty.

In accordance with Margo's  wishes, cremation has taken place, and a private memorial will be held at a later date.
