Maggie shared her love, kindness and musical talents throughout her life. We are truely blessed to have known such a warm person. Last time I saw Maggie and Vito I think was when they came to see me play the organ at Kuhar's Restaurant in Geneva,Ohio. I mention this because to this day their visit and support meant so much to me!
