Aunt Margie was a great person. Although I did not see her very often, it was always a pleasure when I did. I will miss her very much, but I am also glad that she has gone on to a better place. I love you Aunt Margie.

It is a joy to know that Aunt Margie is in Heaven where there is no more pain or sorrow; no more tears or death and where Jesus calls her daughter. Her life here was marked by love and kindness.

I never heard her speak an angry or unkind word about anyone. She treasured her family and loved to spend time with her sons and grandchildren, with her sisters and brothers, and with her nieces and newphews. She added warmth to every room that she entered. I miss her very much.

Richard and my thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends. I feel blessed to have enjoyed Aunt Margie's laughter and her "crooked smile." We will not forget her kindness and gentleness. Our prayer is that God will comfort you and draw you close to Him during this time.

Our prayer is for God to bless and comfort the family and friends of our "Dear Aunt Marge". She was always a blessing to us. She was a wonderfully sweet, kind, and gentle lady who will be greatly missed by all of us who knew and loved her. We were so fortunate to have Aunt Marge be a part of our lives. She touched our hearts and we are forever thankful.
