I'll never forget the great times at the river. Marge was a class act. She didn't know a stranger and will be greatly missed on this earth but she'll still be a class act in her next life!

I cannot begin to describe how much I will miss her. She was every bit as much of a mother to me as my own. I will cherish all the memories I have of her and keep her close to my heart forever. I love you, Mom.

To the Tinsley Family. It is with great sadness to hear of the loss of such a dynamic individual. I'm sure she will be missed by the family and friends. I'm so glad to have known Marge and all the family and to have had all the fun that we did. Our friendship was wonderful and crazy but lots of fun. Thanks for being our neighbor and a good friend. Fond memories will always be with us.
