My dear Bill and Family,
Our heartfelt love to all the family in the passing of your sister Margie to her Heavenly Home - the Lord is GOOD. I enjoyed my visit with her and seeing her eat the liver lunch that Tim and I took to her - Tim always talked about Aunt Margie and would gives us good laughs about things she would say- I know you will miss her - but one thing for sure- we shall all meet again in Heaven with our love ones. Ilove you and your family very much. Regards, Millie and Darby McCathern - 1420 Pheaant Run Court, Morganton, North Carolina 28655
