She graduated from high school in Houston, Texas, in 1921, and Southern Methodist University in Dallas in 1926.

Margueritte was a devoted housewife and mother. Margueritte's second love, after family, was the Unitarian Church. She was a free thinking rationist and naturalist and a strong supporter of American Democracy and the common good, while still holding on to a strict moral code of ethics, mainly demonstrated by honesty, the work ethic, and family values.

A memorial service for Margueritte Gillette DuPuy will occur at 3:00 o'clock Monday, June 14, 1997, at the First Unitarian Church of Austin.

In lieu of flowers, Margueritte would prefer your donations to your favorite charity or to the Unitarian Endowment Fund of the Austin Church.
