Maguerite M. McDevitt (Cambria) - Class Of 1978

Maguerite M. McDevitt (Cambria)

Marguerite M. (McDevitt) Cambria, 56, passed away March 3, 2017, after her long struggle with brain cancer in her home with her loving family by her side. Brave she was and brave and good too, her husband and best friend, Chris. Maggie's way will be sorely missed-her graceful way of seeing the world and everything in it as good. She was the wife of Christian A. Cambria. Born in Reading, she was a daughter of the late Leonard C. and Bridget A. (Edwards) McDevitt. She was a 1978 graduate of Holy Name High School. Maggie was employed by Drs. Jay Melvin and Michael Ritter Endodontics, Spring Ridge, as an office manager for 35 years, retiring in August, 2014.

Maggie loved spending time with her family, going to the beach, traveling and decorating. She was an avid reader and an ambitious and accomplished pianist.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by four siblings: Patrick J. (Sandra J.); Leonard C. (Kathie M.) Thomas L. (Elaine M.); and Marian B. (Jeffrey P.). She is also survived by her in-laws, Nino P. and Jean A. Cambria; her sister-in-law, Victoria J. Cambria; and her dear friend, Kathleen A. Verano; many nieces and nephews: Brennan, Shea, Timothy, Margaret, Adam, Ryann, Mark, Elyse, Jennifer and Andrew; and several grandnieces and nephews. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Wednesday at 10 a.m. in Sacred Heart R.C. Church, 701 Franklin St., West Reading. Burial will be in Gethsemane Cemetery. Friends may call Tuesday from 6 to 8 p.m. in Edward J. Kuhn Funeral Home, Inc., 739 Penn Ave., West Reading.
