Margaret Elizabeth (Schuller) Ricci Obituary
Margaret Elizabeth Schuller Ricci was born October 4, 1939 in Warren, Ohio and was called home to be with her Lord on May 31, 2026.
Maggie attended Lake View High School in Chicago, Illinois, one semester at Miami Senior High School, and worked for Pan American World Airways from 1959-1990 in Miami, Florida.
Married to Albert Ricci on April, 26 1980, they owned antique shops (Treasure Hunt) in both Florida and New Hampshire. Maggie and Albert purchased their home in Tuftonboro where they spent many years restoring it and filling it with antiques. She was a talented artist, excelling in ceramics and painting, and loved hosting neighborhood gatherings and parties.
Maggie’s faith was an important part of her life. She attended the Melvin Village Community Church where she participated on many committees, played in the Bell Choir, and volunteered with the Fair and Auction where she treasured spending time in the barn collecting items with her friends.
She was “Mom” to several sets of Schnauzers and other beloved dogs and cats. She also cherished her international travels, especially the trips she took with Albert to Rome, and a special trip with her father.
Maggie is survived by her stepchildren, Christina Ricci, Lisa Ricci, and Anthony Ricci; and her nieces and nephews, Linda Abdulhadi, Saher Abdulhadi, John Pearce, Dian Hogget, Valerie Pearce, Tim Schuller, and John Schuller (some of whom affectionately called her “Aunt Honey”). She is also survived by many friends, including her dear friend Sherry Benditt and her husband, Steve.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Albert; her parents, John and Marie Schuller originally from Transylvania; and her siblings, Robert Schuller, Ellen Pearce, Lane Pope, and Frank Schuller.
A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, June 27, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. at the Melvin Village Community Church, Melvin Village, NH. All are encouraged to wear something bright and colorful if you choose.
