Margie was a 1967 classmate at Palmyra. I will always remember Margie as a very fun loving person - always a smile on her face. I am sure she will be sorely missed by those she worked with at Good Sam as well as all those she cared for over her years at the hospital. My deepest sympathy to the Sharkey family.

Marge was a class act when it came to representing a true professional nurse and community servant! She was committed to making sure anyone who needed health care got the best ! She will be missed in the Heath care community but her legacy remains!
