I was very sorry to see That Margie had passed away. I’d had just thought about going to see her. I was privileged to serve her for a few years and we had some wonderful times. She will be missed. Please accept my condolences. (I worked for Trinity In-Home Care)

So sorry to hear of Margie’s passing. What a great lady — and so much fun to be around … always loved her sence of humor and the “digs” we would all give one another when working together with P&R — good memories. God Bless you all..
