She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 60 years, Werner Humbert; her parents, Richard and Ida Giersch; her brother, Richard Giersch; and her sister, Marianne Treupl.

A longtime resident of Aurora, Colorado, Margot spent her final years in Windsor, Colorado, where she found comfort and community. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered for her joyful spirit, unwavering devotion to family, and generous heart.
