From Fredergill Family Funeral Home obituary, Collins and Zearing, Story County, Iowa:

Margaret Dunlap, 92, of Zearing, passed away on Wednesday, April 27, 2016 at her home surrounded by her loving family.

Margaret Elizabeth Dunlap was born on August 31, 1923 in Old Maple Block, Iowa to John and Veda (Clouse) Baiotto. She graduated from Attica High School. After school she ended up making her way to Zearing to be with her family as her father began preaching in Illinois Grove. She worked at Johnson Hardware in Zearing where she met James “Jim” Dunlap. The couple later married on August 7, 1959 in Zearing. Margaret worked at Donnelley Marketing in Nevada for over 20 years before retiring in 1989. Margaret was a very active member at the Zearing Christian Church. She sang in the choir, was a Sunday school teacher, helped put on the Christmas program, and was a vacation bible school teacher for many years. She also was active in the Zearing community and volunteered with various reading programs through Colo-Nesco schools. Margaret loved her family and most especially her granddaughters as they were her pride and joy. Her hobbies included spending time with her family at the lake home, painting, sewing, quilting, gardening, helping at the church, and cooking her famous chicken and noodles.

Those left to cherish her memories are her husband of 56 years Jim; son Max (Jackie) Dunlap; granddaughters Melissa Dunlap, and Katie Dunlap; sisters Arlene Oberto, and Gladys McBride; many nieces, nephews, and friends.
