So sorry to hear of Margie’s passing. She was a wonderful person. I worked with Margie at Supply Dept. becoming good friends and having lunch together. Margie would invite some of over to her cozy trailer and fix supper for us. Great memories. Rest in peace Margie.
Ms. Margie, You were such a beautiful soul. Your sweet smile and gorgeous blue eyes always reminded me of my grandmother. I was so fortunate to meet you and your lovely family members at the Nursing Home. May your dear soul R.I.P! I know Jesus has a special spot just for you.
Faye and family, you will remain in my thoughts and prayers. Please let me know if there is anything I can do! Heaven really gained a wonderful angel.
Kelly and “Aunt Margie’s” Family, Please accept my sincerest condolences at the Home going of your dear loved one. I’ve heard many fond stories and had the pleasure of meeting Aunt Margie and remember how she loved life and family traditions. May Gods comfort cover your sadness and give you joy knowing she is with her Lord.
In Christ’s Love, Darlene
