When I think of Marge, I think of nothing but positives! Words like generous, kind hearted, loving, devoted to her family (immediate and extended) sweet, gentle, and caring are just a few words that describe this truly great lady! She graciously welcomed all those who entered her life as well as the lives of her family members and made us feel genuinely comfortable and wanted. The food was always delicious and in abundance! Her laugh was infectious and unique. Her smile could brighten a room. Her heart was huge and capable of tremendous love. Blessed to have had my path cross hers! My memories are many and truly cherished. My deepest condolences to Marge's family. Find strength and comfort in each other during this difficult time. Hold your cherished memories of Marge close to your heart and find comfort knowing she was definitely One of the good ones.
