Margaret E. Dehls

April 20, 1930 — March 1, 2020

Margaret E. Dehls, 89, formerly of East Moline, Illinois, went to be with her Lord Sunday, March 1, 2020, at Mercy One Medical Center, Des Moines, Iowa.

Services are 1 p.m. Tuesday, September 29, in the Horizon Room at Trimble Funeral Home at Trimble Pointe, 701 12th Street, Moline, and will be live streamed at facebook.com/TrimbleFuneralHome/live. The family will receive friends at a hospitality visitation with food and refreshments before the service from 11 a.m. to funeral time. Masks and social distancing requirements will be enforced.

The former Margaret Ethel Peterson was born April 20, 1930, in Rock Island, Illinios, the daughter of Marc and Goldie (Hammond) Peterson. She married Roy Stottler on December 20, 1947, in Geneseo, Illinios, and the couple had four children before separating. She then married Terry Dehls on April 8, 1972, in Moline.

Margaret had a knack for decorating her home to look beautiful. She loved to shop at thrift stores and garage sales. She loved animals, and she spoiled many pets in her life. Above all else, family was the most important thing to her.

Margaret is survived by her husband, Terry, her children, Kenneth (Janet) Stottler of Henderson, Nevada, Kathleen (Paul) Stumphy of Moline, and Virginia "Ginger" (Kevin) Dreifurst of Des Moines: eight grandchildren: 11 great-grandchildren; and Terry's siblings, Shirley Thomas of Florida, Ruth Andrews of Moline, Jean Marie Dehls of East Moline, and Stanley Dehls of New Jersey. She was preceded in death by a daughter, Sharon Krogman; a grandson, Matthew Dreifurst; her parents; and a brother, Floyd Robert Peterson.

The family invites friends to share stories and condolences at TrimbleFuneralHomes.com.
