To the family of Marge,

I attended St. Celestine school and Elmwood Park High School with Margaret. We were dear friends and enjoyed many happy times together. I ran into her at a company picnic when she worked at Manor Care in Elk Grove Village. I know she was ill at that time, but you would never know it with her quit wit and zest for life. To me, you never would have known that she was sick. She would not let it get in the way of her life or personality. I will remember her fondly as always being fun to be around. She was the most down to earth person that I have ever known. A gentle soul who was intelligent, kind and very giving. I feel blessed to have known her and am saddened that you have this emptiness without her. May God Bless you all and be with you to comfort you. May it comfort you to know that Margaret was well loved by her friends of many many years ago. I will always pray for her and know that she is in God's presence. Mrs. Marc, you raised a wonderful daughter. I know you are so proud of her. We are all so blessed to have known her. God Bless you all. Pauline (Sloma) De Pinto

Dear Mrs. Marc;

Words cannot express, not only my sympathy for you and your wonderful family but also how fortunate we all were to have Marge as part of our lives. She was the best Director of Nursing I ever had and my memories today are of her steadfast dedication, hard work and great sense of fun and humor!

God Bless you all.
