Margaret Emmerich Goldstein

Margaret Emmerich Goldstein, 69, of Stone Mountain, GA passed away peacefully at Fite Living Center, on November 11, 2026.
Margaret was born October 28, 1957, in Atlanta, to the late Charles and Margaret Emmerich. She was the younger sister to the late Mary Vogel. Margaret was a 1975 graduate of Briarcliff High School, where she recently was able to celebrate her 50th class reunion with fellow friends and classmates. Margaret married her late husband, Maurice, in 1976 and they moved to Stone Mountain in 1978. She worked for the state of Georgia before deciding to retire early due to the progression of her Multiple Sclerosis, of which she lived with for over 30 years. Margaret was a devoted and loving wife, mother, and grandmother-to-be. Whether cheering from the stands at baseball games or sitting proudly in the auditorium at dance recitals, she never missed a milestone in her children's lives. Just like the penguins that she absolutely adored, she was a shy yet loyal and expressive individual. She was one of the best friends anyone could have, as she was always characterized as being sweet and kind. Her resilience and kindheartedness will live on in her family forever.
Margaret is survived by her son Matthew (Kathy), daughter Mandy (Hill), sisters-in-law Joan (Steve) and Sandy, aunt Lib, and a host of cousins, nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.
Family, friends, and others whose lives Margaret touched are invited to visit with the family at A.S. Turner and Sons Funeral Home in Decatur from 11am to 1:30pm on Monday, November 16, 2026.
