On Saturday, August 28, 2021, Margaret (Egazarian) Urbec, age 91, passed away peacefully at the Westerly Health Center in Westerly RI. She was the beloved wife of the late John G. Urbec.
Margaret was born in Worcester, MA on November 13, 1929, and was the daughter of the late Kachadoor and Araxe (Asadoorian) Egazarian.
Margaret shared her love of cooking with the community as a local caterer for many years. She was a communicant of St Pius X. Church of Westerly. Margaret also volunteered her time at the Westerly Hospital and with Meals on Wheels.

The most important thing to Margaret was her family, and she would always put them first. Margaret shared her Armenian heritage with her family through her love of cooking. Holiday meals were always spent with extended family, and Margaret would make some traditional Armenian food for everyone to enjoy. She also enjoyed spending time at the beach with her family and friends.
