Obituary
Introductory Statement
It has been barely more than a week since Margarett died and I am slowly coping with the pain of her loss. She was my beautiful wife, my best friend, and my true love. It is a sad time for those of us who were part of her life.
I could easily have placed 100 photos of her here but we are limited to 10. There will be many words spoken about her and many more photos at her memorial service on November 11, 10:00AM at the Normandy Park Community Club (The Cove). All who knew and loved her are welcome.
This site will be active for two months and I will add more to it as I am able.
With love to you all,
Sean

She was a landscape architect with her own firm, Harrison Design. She is survived by her beloved husband, Sean Coney, and her sons, Ben and Sam Harrison. She is also survived by five brothers and sisters and many nieces and nephews, all of whom loved her and will miss her. She was preceded in death by her parents, Rosemary and Elwood Maloney. There will be a memorial service on Saturday, November 11, starting at 10:0 AM at the Normandy Park Community Club (The Cove).
Every time I step out my front door I will be reminded of Margarett Anne. She designed my front garden and it brings me so much joy. Margarett, you will be missed so much. You fought hard and enjoyed life, you are a great example on how to live each day to the fullest. Your friends will all miss you very much. My heart goes out to Ben, Sam, Sean and her entire family. Love to you all.
Sean,
I’m so sorry about Margarett’s passing. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Jim
We are saddened by the passing of Margarett and will miss her laugh and spirit. She was kind and generous, and highly regarded in her profession. My thought are with her family Sean, Ben and Sam, and all the Maloney siblings.
Love your cousin,

I am deeply sorry for your loss. Margarett will be missed by so many. May God’s loving kindness bring comfort and strength to you at this difficult time. 2Corinthians 1:3, 4
I have fond memories of working with Margarett on the Seawall project landscaping including very challenging beach habitat designs! Margarett was always a pleasure to work with and always willing to work together to achieve the project goals and talk through the pros and cons of the various choices. Her legacy will live on through her work on this very signature project for the City!
Margaret was my very close friend from college – UofO landscape architecture. We had many laughs together (she was a fun and funny gal)! I love her deeply and regret having lost touch this past decade. I will be at the memorial service. I am so sorry for your loss. My heart aches with sadness.

Dearest Ben and Sam~ I am so saddened to hear of your beautiful and bright Mom’s passing. The years that you two boys were here at Preschool I watched your adoring Mother love and support you through every step. I remember her giant loving heart and how she couldn’t wait to hear about your days adventures. She loved everything you did!!!! She was the ultimate nurturer! I am grateful for the time we all had together during those very young years! You will be in my thoughts always! I love you! Teacher Linda
Margarett was an amazing woman with such a vibrant spirit. She adored her husband, loved her sons deeply, and had the support of a wonderful, warm extended family of loving brothers and sisters and niece and nephews. She will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to Sean, Ben and Sam, Ed, Dan, Mary, John and Maureen.
With much love, your cousin Mary Jean
I am so sorry to hear about Margarett. I knew her at the U of O when we studied landscape architecture. I remember her as a sweet, kind and very funny young lady. We shared many laughs together. She is lucky to have such a loving family with wonderful memories to last forever. Goodbye Margarett. Xxoo

I knew Margaret as a young girl. We attended Sacred Heart Academy and we’re best friends at least until fifth grade because then I think she left and went to a different school. She and I and Jack Hannigan used to play on the playground and I remember going to her house. We both came from big families, and I believe some of our older brothers were friends as well. I lived in Seattle for so long. I wish I had kept in touch. We could’ve reconnected. So sorry for your loss I just found out seven years later . We danced Irish dance together. Rest in Peace Margaret.
