Marjorie, I had good memories about our friendship,The times when you encouraged me to do things.
I didn't dream of doin',Like continuing.
My art skills,And music inclined talients.
It's never goin' to be the same without you.
Just because you filled that empty spot.
When I needed A friend,I still can't believe that your gone.
But your soul still helps me get through.
Cause I still believe that your not gone.
You'll may not be here,But you are
around.
I remember my arrival there you were
again.
Helping get through my hard things
Like handing milk that I like.
Or how about having a friend when I did'nt have.
Now,That your not around this planet,I promise that I'll continue remembring you.
Sincerely: Philip,Vanessa

Marjorie was a sweet wonderful person whom I had known at Fellowship House since 1995. She had many friends and remembered their birthdays and sent them Christmas cards. I was one of those who she invited to her apartment for the 4th of July a few years back and also at another apartment for a friend's surprise birthday party. When she needn't a ride to the drugstore she would "bribe" me with cookies or brownies. We at Fellowship House will remember how she always remembered every one's name at lunchtime,"five more please." She was kind to everyone and devoted to her family.I will miss her

Please accept my condolenses to the family and friends of Marjorie. Marjorie was truly a blessing to everyone she met. She had love for everyone and was so helpful. She cheered people up. She even remembered the little details about a person's life. She would write me mother's day cards and X-mas cards. She was extremely thoughtful. She would even call my extension to remind me to get lunch before the kitchen closed. She was truly an angel of God while she was here on earth, and now she is an angel in Heaven. Thank you Margie for being you. You meant so much to so many people and showed us how to be more caring human beings.

Words cannot express our sympathy regarding the loss of our dear angel, Marge. We know she is in the presence of the Lord and in His presence is joy unspeakable. Surely she is beholding His face and gazing upon His beauty, worshipping with all of the saints and will dwell in the House of the Lord forever. Margie will live in our hearts forever and we look forward to the day when we will see her again. May her boundless joy, love and faith be an example and a testimony of the goodness of God in our lives.

Like a beatiful flower in bloom, a dazzling ray of sunshine,an angel sent from above. I will always remember Marjorie as someone who touched peoples lives. Marjorie was full of faith and love. Never selfish, she always gave to others. Her kindness, warmth, generosity, humility, compassion, and love touched the lives of many. Her hugs and kisses and sense of humor I will always remember. I am deeply saddened by her death. My deepest sympathy and condolences go out to her family. God Bless you all. Dwell on your happy memories and know that Marjorie is now today in paradise with GOD and his Heavenly choir of angels.
