We'll miss you, darling Margie..... my sweet aunt and special 'big sister', and even at this age I can remember when we all lived together so happily there in Elmhurst. You were in high school and I remember you being picked up in the morning by friends with a roadster and going off to school. (I was a toddler and I can still picture the house and all the rooms (and you at your desk!!) and the Winklies next door who had chickens in their backyard, and the Platt's across the street.... I'll always remember you, dear, with a heart full of love!!!
