Auntie Marge, being my one and only "auntie", you hold a special place in my heart. I will miss seeing your sweet smile here on this earth, but I know you are smiling BIG in heaven.

Your favorite niece (smiles :)

Marge, you have been my friend since I was hardly more than a girl. We have always kept in touch and were never more than a visit or a phone call away. It will seem strange to walk this earth knowing I can't reach you by at least a phone call. But I am so full of joy knowing you are now walking with Jesus for all eternity. In time I will be there with you. I love you, sister. Sharon
