    Ya’ll chose GREAT photos – the early years photo is pure Marjie and the senior years Marjie still shows that infectious, joyful but mischievous grin of hers! We are definitely missing you girl but know that there is one heck of reunion happening with Lefty, Dutch, Joe, Fran, Aunt Verna and Doc…….

    We were so sorry to learn of Marjorie’s passing. We always enjoyed visiting with her at family events. He ready smile was so infectious and heart warming. We always felt welcome in her presence.

    I’m so sad to learn of Marge’s passing. We lived down the street from her and always enjoyed taking our kids to trick or treat at her perfect 1955 house. She would greet the kids with the candy neatly displayed on a doily atop a silver platter. It was lovely. When she didn’t participate this year, I knew something was wrong. Please accept our deepest sympathies.
