We met Ms. Margie 3 1/2 years ago across the backyard fence (with rake in hand) as we were moving in the house next door to her and it was an instant friendship. We feel greatly blessed to have Margie and Carol as neighbors, the best we could ask for. We shared alot of laughs over the past few years and she will be missed by all of us. May our thoughts and prayers be with the family.

So sorry for your loss. She will be missed. She was a special friend to me when we worked together at Provident Life and Accident for many years and after our employment together. May God bless your family and give you the strength and comfort during your time of sorrow. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Our prayers are with the family at this time of sorrow. I always thought a lot of Margie from working with her at Provident Life & Accident Ins Co, I'm sure she will be missed by family and friends.
