Margaret Mary Krach
Ocean City

In loving memory of Margaret Mary Krach (nee Stafford) who passed away on April 6, 2025, after a long battle with Alzheimers.

Margaret was born in Baltimore on July 20,1939 and graduated from the Institute of Notre Dame in 1957.  She is survived by her loving husband of 64 years, Thomas Krach of Ocean City.

Margaret was the devoted mother of Joanne Bennetti (Michael) and son James Krach (Kathleen).  She is also survived by four loving granddaughters, Ashley Devine, Haley Bennetti, Gabrielle Bennetti and Cassidy Bennetti.  She was blessed with boys when her great grandsons came along, James and Luke Devine.

Margaret spent her life caring, nurturing, loving and volunteering to help others.  When they retired and moved to Ocean City in 1996, Margaret continued her life of selflessness and joined: St Luke’s Catholic Church, The Ladies Auxiliary of The O.C. Elks, The Delmarva Irish American Club and The Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians.  Margaret’s pride in her Irish Heritage was always shining and passed along from her father, James Stafford, a Baltimore City Police Officer. She walked annually in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade and both Margaret & Tom were honored by being selected as the parade’s Grand Marshalls.

She will be buried at Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens at a date to be determined. Anyone wishing to make a contribution in her honor, can donate to Stansell House-Coastal Hospice 1500 Ocean Parkway, Ocean Pines Md. 21811
