Margaret worked with us at Bryce Canyon as a seasonal ranger. She was a wonderful person and a friend. She had many lifetimes more excellence to give to the NPS. How dare he take away our Margaret?!

My Heart goes out to the family, friends, and fellow rangers at all the parks. This is truly a sad day. It is amazing how interconnected we Park Rangers are - I am from Westfield NJ, and my first park was Prince William Forest Park, where her husband worked.
Thank you, Ranger Anderson, for your service and I am sending virtual hugs to your family.

I have spent time on Mt. Rainier hiking, camping, and photographing wildlife, sometimes with my wife and young children. This mountain can bring totally unpredictable and dangerous situations to anyone on it, and it is always a comfort knowing that the Park Rangers are there to keep the peace, and maintain safety for inhabitants and visitors alike. As the father of 2 young girls, I feel for this family and their loss. As a shrink who helps soldiers and first responders with trauma and PTSD, I feel a deep sense of loss for the family, friends, and law enforcement colleagues of Ranger Margaret Anderson. Another senseless loss of life in the line of duty...

Margaret

I remember the days working with you along the C & O Canal. You always had a smile that will never be forgotten. In my heart I am saddened, but in reality you are a true hero.

My condolences to your husband and daughters.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of the loss of Ranger Anderson for her young family and her friends. I live in Texas now but spent most of my life in Washington state service. I visited the state last fall and saw how beautiful Mowich Lake is. All the rangers and park assistants have been wonderful over the years and I am sure they will miss her greatly
