She was mentioned in the obituary of Margaret Malinda Biggs on 4 June 1896; "Died, at her home on Elm street, Waynesburg, Pa., on Thursday morning, at 5 o'clock, May 28, 1896, of dropsy of the heart, Mrs. Margaret M. Stoy, wife of Captain W. H. Stoy, aged 69 years, 7 months and 12 days. Mrs. Stoy was the daughter of Allen Biggs, deceased, and was born at West Liberty, W. Va., Oct. 16, 1826, and was married to Capt. Stoy, at Middlebourne, Guernsey county, O., April 4, 1844. She came of good stock and was connected with noble ancestry. She was the cousin of the Hon. Benjamin T. Biggs, governor of Delaware in 1887. She raised a large family of children, ten in number, who are all living, as follows: Mrs. Mary Sullivan, of Pittsburg., Pa., Mrs. Lottie Albertson, Of Washington, D.C., Mr. Henry W. Stoy, of Guthrie Center, Iowa, Mrs. Lillie Morrison of St. Joseph, Mo., Mr. Gus A. Stoy, druggist, Mrs. Dollie Hawkins and Frank W. Stoy, of Waynesburg, Pa., Mrs. Jennie Clayton and George B. Stoy, of Pittsburg, Pa., and Mrs. Katherine Stich, of Independence, Kan. She was the only sister of four brothers, who are left to mourn her death, as well as a large circle of near kindred and friends. Her death is the first that has ever occurred in this family, and is, therefore, the more sad and heart-felt. Mrs. Stoy was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church for many years, but her life was spent largely within the domain of her own home. She lived an exclusive, quiet, christian life, raising a large family, in whom her devotion was unceasing. She was a kind, good mother, a devoted wife, and a God-fearing christian. Having lived a life of christian virtues, enduring its ceasless rounds of burdens and cares of raising a large family, and in the latter years of her life waiting by the bedside of an afflicted and helpless husband, who required her constant help day and night, thus sapping away her life by degree; yet she bore it all patiently and lovingly without a murmur or complaint. Her life was indeed sacrificed upon the altar of her home for the love and sympathy she had for her children and for the devotion she had for her husband whom she had trothed to minister unto in health as well as in affliction.

Hers was truly a life of patience, duty, love and christian fortitude, and it is well with the sweet, kind manner that she so quietly and meekly obeyed the summons of her Master, although she is called away just in the mature years of her noble womanhood, and would have enriched her home and community more and more with the influence of her many virtues if spared a little longer--but she has joined the innumerable throng across the horizon's verge. And thus stripped of life now lies cold and motionless in the unbroken calm of the grave. Nothing now can give her pain, trouble or anxiety, concerning the welfare of her children, the deep sad affliction of her husband, all of whom she loved so well. Words are meaningless in this hour of mourning which drapes that home.

Alas! words cannot tell how that home is empty since the grave is filled. The long, midnight watch is o'er; the tender solicitude, the deep, earnest, yearning for her family and home have all vanished in the mystic dreamland of death. Often doubtless in the deep, tender privacy of her life, when in soul touch with her God in the solitude of the closet, she experienced the rich blessing of her Savior and his precious promises of eternal life as she poured out to him the burdens of her soul. God grant that she is realizing now the fullness of those promises and the joy of that immortal life beyond, for which she longed and lived while upon earth. Kind, good, loving mother, farewell!

Appropriate funeral services were conducted at the late home on Saturday eve, May 30, 1896, at 5 o'clock p.m. by Rev. R. S. Calder, of the Presbyterian church, assisted by Dr. A. B. Miller of the C. P. church, after which the remains were laid to rest in Green Mount Cemetery, witnessed by a large concourse of relatives and friends.
