Margaret Thatcher Dies At Age 87
Baroness Margaret Hilda Thatcher died earlier today from a stroke at the age of 87.
The first ever woman Prime Minister was born on the 13th October 1925 in Linconshire to Alfred Roberts and Beatrice Ethe. Even at a young age, Margaret Roberts was bound for Leadership as she was Head Girl at her primary, Huntingtower Road Primary School between 1942 and 1943, and she became
President of the Oxford University Conservative Association in 1946.
In 1951, Margaret Hilda Roberts became Margaret Hilda Thatcher as she got married to Denis Thatcher, and had 2 children named Carol Thatcher and Mark Thatcher, but sadly her husband died in 2003. Thatcher became the first ever female Prime Minister on the 4th May 1979. Arriving at 10 Downing Street, she said, in a paraphrase of the "Prayer of Saint Francis":
'Where there is discord, may we bring harmony. Where there is error, may
we bring truth. Where there is doubt, may we bring faith. And where
there is despair, may we bring hope'

Today, the 8th of April 2013, Margaret Thatcher died from a stroke, though her family says that her passing was peaceful. According to the government, Margaret Thatcher will receive a funeral similar to those of the Queen Mother, Elizabeth Angela Marguerite Bowes-Lyon, who died on the 30th of March 2002 aged 101, and of the Princess of Wales, Diana Frances, who died on
31 August 1997 in France aged just 36 when she was involved in a fatal car crash in a road tunnel, also killing her companion Dodi Fayed and the driver Henri Paul.
Thatcher was famous for the changes she made to Great Britain, both good and bad. She was commonly know as 'Maggie Thatcher,
Milk Snatcher' as she stopped free school milk in primary schools, and in the 1980's she started closing down coal mines, causing miners to strike in 1984.
There is a split decision on Margaret Thatcher, half of people love her and the other half hate her. But no matter what, she will always be known as the 'Iron Lady'.
