There's not a day that goes by without me thinking of my mother. She enabled me to see the the world for what it is. And have the ability to smile in the face of adversity .

Just learned of Marge's death through a friend. Although we only saw her at Cody's RV Park, we considered her a true friend, always ready with words of wisdom and shared our love of green tea. We both have large families and were able to appreciate the joy of having many children.
She will be greatly missed by all.
Condolences to her family as they adjust to their loss.

A great sister-in-law of mine whom we loved playing cards with and meeting them at the flea markets we always attended. Lots of memories of our family gatherings.

We are so sorry to hear of Aunt Marges passing. Uncle George and Aunt Marge were always fun to share time with. She will be missed.

Mom you will be missed dearly. When I want to see you I shall look into the mirror and into the eyes of the people close to me .

As a kid growing up in the neighborhood, I spent a lot of time at the Guzlas home where Marge made everyone feel welcome. There was always a pot of coffee or a cup of "Green Tea" ready for you...not to mention a hug!

Marge was always sharing her love of art and antiques with great stories of what she found, explaining where it originated and the process of how to was crafted. Marge would explain how to tell if an article was genuine or a reproduction. Her knowledge of antiques was surpassed only by her love of family and friends.

I am extremely blessed to have known her.
