I will always remember Madame Alvo as she was a fixture for me from the moment I had memories. I would run to her apartment as if I lived there. She watched me grow and move on, as such, she remains fixed in time for me, living on Fielding avenue. I will miss her, however, she will always be in my thoughts and memories.

Our deepest sympathies to you . I had the pleasure of being a neighbor and friend to Margo. I loved her wisdom and her warm heart. There never was a dull conversation or a boring time when I was in her company. She was always cheerful , no matter what troubled her.
Rodney always spent many hours with her when we lived on Fielding.
