I knew Margo from when I was alittle girl and my mom worked in Montgomery Wards with her. When I got older I had the pleasure of being her co worker at Montgomery Wards and then later at Hecht's. I enjoyed hearing her tell me about her children and her grandchildren and I will always treasure her advice and our talks. I will miss her and I will continue to pray for the family.
