Margaret Alice Terry was born on June 30, 1924, in Crystal River, FL, the daughter of John and Emma (Adkins) Terry. She was raised and received her education in Crystal River, where she played on the high school girls’ basketball team, and graduated from Crystal River High School in 1942. While growing up in Crystal River, Margaret grew to love swimming and diving, which she later passed on to her children.

She was united in marriage to Michael Krizan on February 1, 1943, in Conway, SC. After his discharge from the service, they started their family on a small dairy farm in Donald, WI, where they lived until retiring in 1991. They moved to Boyd, WI and lived there until moving to Thorp, WI, in 1998. Shortly after her husband’s death on May 5, 2004, Margaret moved to Minnesota. She resided in Minnesota until the time of her death.
