      Margaret was born at Gainsborough, Lincolnshire on 16th June 1942.    She  married Frank Bosman in July 1983 at Beverley, East  Yorkshire.   Sara, Andrew and Rebecca were children from her previous marriage to Doug Hunter.   

      In 1996, three years prior to Frank's retirement, Frank and Margaret bought an Idyllic home situated in the hills of North Yorkshire above High Bentham.   Tragically this was not to be, retirement was to bring sadness on 8th  November 2000, when Margaret lost her battle with illness.    Margaret was cremated at Lancaster on 17th November 2000, after a service conducted by a Member of the 'Humanist Society'.   

      Margaret  enjoyed a lifelong interest in poetry.   After her death friends began asking for copies of the poems she had written.   It was then that a decision was made to publish some of her poems - to her memory.   

A publication "High Horses" - a collection of poems by Margaret Bosman was produced in June 2001.

Remembrance - with thanks to Claude Monet

Heavy-lidded, somnolent 
Awakening to another dawn,
Clouds of poppies fill my eyes,
reminding me of a time long gone. 
The poppies nod; they seem to say
"this is where the young men lay 
lest you forget.

 "With near close lids, 
Did I perceive a movement? 
Then, as one, 
they rose within a timeless shroud
 to walk across my brain, 
haunting me, 
lest I forget.   

To soon their marching died, 
as they in a sea of scarlet courage lay.
This moving picture in simple frame 
Will forever 
on my wall remain 
Lest I forget....
