It's almost a year since Marge passed and I think of her often and wish I could see her and talk with her as she was such a caring person and a friend. I remember her smile and laugh and always will. She touched my life. I thank God I knew her.

To the family of Marge Richards: I loved Marge dearly and she always kept in touch with me when I moved to Colorado. We always had such good times and laughter. She loved people and was very caring. I am so sorry I could not have made it to New York to see her one more time. Anyone she ever touched in her life has a deep loss in her passing. God Bless her family to remember her for all her good.

I was so sad to hear that Margie passed away. I will miss her very much. She was an old friend that I got together with again after many years. She never changed - she was fun then and now. I will keep memories of her in my heart.
