My deepest sympathies to the Hallet family -- I heard my aunt, Grace Roseberry, mention Marge's name many times and the other co-workers at the Courthouse, during those 25 yrs. She had great affection for all of them.

Marjorie will be dearly missed. She was a special lady. She brought so much laughter each day at the nursing home. I will always think of her when I hear the fair to midlin line..each morning when I'd ask how she was doing that was her reply with a smile. She was a beautiful lady inside and out. May she rest in peace and fly high with God's angels.

Our sincere sympathies to the Hallett family.
We spent many very pleasant days with Marge playing Pinochle together over the years. She will always be remembered as a dear friend.
