I worked with Marj for many years at Cape Cod Hospital and she was always smiling. She was a patient and kind person, always available to lend a hand. A great nurse! Thinking of her today.

Ed, Chris, Erik & Mark,

I just learned the news of my oldest and dearest friend. I'm totally blown away that such a lovely lady has left us. She, by far, was a true friend in every sense of the word and she was always so proud of her three sons!! They were, and are, the joys of her life! What a wonderful legacy to leave! I will always be indebted to her for helping me struggle through the opening day of JTC's Lickety Split! Marge was the person who kept me grounded that day and I will always cherish that memory. My heart goes out to ALL of her boys and to tell all of you to always live through Marge's eyes. She, I know, will always be with you!

Dear Ed & Family,
I was saddened to hear of Margie's passing.She was always such an inspiration to not only me but all the lives she has touched. I will always remember Margie's beautiful smile and her expressive blue eyes. She was a very courageous woman. Though I am saddened that she lost her fight and is gone, I know I am a better person for having known her.
Please always remember that she loved you all very,very much. She was so very proud of all "her boys".
Also remember that you all "did good" over the years of her illness helping to take care of her.

FOR MARGIE
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not meant to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered "Come to Me"
With tearful eyes we’ve watched you, and now you’ve passed away.
Although we loved you so dearly, we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating; hard working hands at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.

Dear Lambtons,
I am so saddened by the loss of that beautiful lady. Margie and I graduated from Bishop Cassidy together. I was so excited that she worked at CCH as well as I. I don't ever remember any time when she didn't have an incredible smile. She was one of those people who always brightened your day. I will also miss her. You are in my prayers.

to the family of margie,

margie and i were friends as young
adolescents. she lived in the street
behind me and we would string cans
then her dad's intercom's between
the houses to keep in touch. she was
truly my first best friend. i am sorry
that i did not hear about her passing
before all of the services were completed but i wanted to extend my
sympathy for the passing of one of the truly greatest people to ever walk this earth.

Dearest Ed, Chris, Eric, Mark and Family,

I offer you my deepest sympathy on the loss of your wife and mother and sincerely hope you feel
God’s loving grace in the difficult days and weeks ahead.
Besides all the carpooling we did back when the boys were in CCD and sports, I will always remember how Marge was my “angel” when she spent an entire day with Brandon, seeing that he was nourished and got his medication, after he was released from the hospital while I was attending my own mother’s funeral.
It was indeed a great privilege knowing Marge and your family.

Dear Ed,Chris,Erik,Marc and Meagan,
Marge was the bravest person I know. I know how you all loved her and how she loved you all.
She was the most compassionate person I knew.
After my accident and when I finally came home, she was the first person to come see me. She brought scones and stayed and painted my toenails for me. I'll never forget that, in fact we were just laughing about it the other day.
Also, when I went back to work on crutches, she picked me up and brought me home. That was what Marge was all about!!!
Throughout her battle, she always smiled.
Her kindness and compassion will live on forever in people she touched.
I think she was a Saint on earth and she certainly did her job well!
Love, Steve and Cheryl falletti

Dear Ed and boys,

I can only imagine the loss you feel right now. I only hope, and pray, that you will be comforted by the fact that Marge was such an inspiration to so many of us who she touched throughout her life. Her bright smile and beautiful eyes always conveyed a warm and caring soul, right to the end. At my mother's July 4th birthday party this year, I was struck at first by how frail she seemed. Yet when I spoke to her and looked into those eyes I still saw that wonderful woman I had the pleasure to meet more than 20 years ago when I first moved to Cape Cod fulltime. You are a strong and caring family, Marge always being at the center and I know today there must be a deep loss. My prayers are with you.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Dear Ed and Family,

We are so sorry for your loss. Our words can not express our sympathy to you all. To have known Marge was a true gift and every life she touched was better for it. She truly was an angel and will be missed by all who knew her. We will never forget her beautiful smile. bright eyes, and wonderful sense of humor.

During these past years of her illness she was an example of courage and unbelievable strength. She was constantly an inspiration to us and a true example of living each day to the fullest.

Please know we are praying for you all. May you find comfort in her memory and from all the friends and family that loved her so.
