To the Wheaton Family; Our heartfelt wishes for strength at this time of loss. Marge was a kind, caring , and sincere person. From the first time I met her many years ago, I always was welcome into her home and spent many enjoyable hours with her, Jim & Shorty. Her sense of humor always made me laugh and know that she truly enjoyed life. Find comfort in happy memories of her.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to the Wheaton family. Marge and my late father Frank worked together for many years at the annex. He always had wonderful stories to tell about fun he and Marge had at the office or during lunch. He had great respect for Marge and enjoyed her sense of humor.

We pray that God will get you peace during this difficult time.

We had a boat across from *The Judge* I always held her in such high esteem. I remember her fondly as a joyous part of going to the lake and all of us tying up out in the cove. My prayers are with her family.

My mom, Jeannette Bates Schmidt, loved Marjorie and the summers they had on Laurel Lake, and I remember many good times at the home of both my grandparents on Mill street and the home of "Aunt Rena and Uncle Charles." The Bates and Grummond families did Thanksgiving together. There was always talk of Marjorie and how she was doing. Marjorie had a sense of daring, fairness, and adventure that is rare anymore. Mom used to say of their exploits "we should have been killed, but..." Mom died in 11/06 at the age of 92, so I'll bet they're having a great time together now...Heaven will never be the same! It was a priviledge to share the world with Marjorie. Yours, Robin Schmidt

Marge certainly added a lot of wit and humor to my life. Several months ago I was lucky to meet her doing some shopping at ABC - it made my day. God bless her and you, her family. Fran Donovan

We met Marge through our friends Dorothy and Harold Harder. I can remember when they had a boat in Troy's marina with the Harder's. Marge would tell jokes and make us laugh for hours. She was a great lady and we will always have fond memories of her. So sorry for your loss.
