Just knowing him for the past six or so months, I took great lessons from a man who practiced life to the fullest. To ever attempt to keep up with his daily routine of swimming laps and working out in the gym would have been futile - and he was always ready with that warm smile. Bless you Moe, I would love to have known you longer.

To lovely Gert, Joseph, David and Daniel, you have our deepest sympathies and will remain in our thoughts.

To the Margolick Family,
The Doctor was an amazing man, I loved his smile which always put me at ease while tending this patient. My Mom (Dorothy) was extremely ill one Christmas morning and the Dr. made a house call. I will surely miss him.

Dear Mrs. Margolick and Family,

We are both sad for the loss of this amazing and interesting man, but happy we did get a glimpse of this man, your husband, father and friend. We only gotten to know Dr. Margolick since late July this year. The zest for assimilating information and the commitment to his excercise kept him sharp & fit to 98! Our hearts to out to Gert and Family for the loss, but hopefully the outpouring of wonderful memories will soften your current feelings.

We will keep you in our prayers.

Dear Gert and family,
Whenever I would meet Dr. Margolick he always had three comments. 1) How are the twins (a delivery of two neither of us anticipated)? 2) Remember the Roman dinner (when I taught "Joey" in grade 6)? 3)Your sister Judy did such a magnificent job in "Medea"! He had such a warm smile and comforting presence. I feel truly blessed to have know him.
You are in my thoughts and prayers - Kay Davis (Hildebrandt)

Gert and family,
I would like to share with you a memory from when my parents and I lived over Dr. Margolick's first office in Putnam. I was 3 years old. My mother had bought a stuffed reindeer for me and for my little friend. Upon returning home, the door to Dr. M's office was open. I saw the exam table and stirrups and thought: "A sleigh!" With a reindeer in each stirrup, I sat on the table driving the "sleigh". My mother took a picture. That picture hangs over the gyn table in my own office today...
Dr. Margolick was an early influence in my love of medicine...
My deepest condolences to you all.

Dear Mrs. Margolick

My son, Matthew called me yesterday afternoon to tell me about the article in the Hartford Courant. The entire Bulger family thought so highly of Dr. Margolick. I have such good memories of you and your family and am grateful for all Dr. Margolick did for us.

Dear Gert and sons,
So sorry to hear about Moe. I am really sorry that I never brought Cele up to visit. Always thought time was on my side. Please call when you come back and let me know if I can do anything. I do owe him for my being here since he delivered me. Our thoughts are with you all.

how sad to lose Dr. Margolick. although it has been 57 years since he delivered me he would always greet me as if he saw me everyday. I was always amazed he remembered my name. I also have memories of him sending his sons to play with me when I had chicken pox so they would get them. I pray for him and his family.

Dear Gertrude and sons
I remember the night he was to operate on my son John and came in in his Holloween costume. He also took care of my grandmother. He will be sadly missed. My deepest condolences to all of you.
