Not sure what to say?

Dear Tom & Family, After knowing Marge for forty years, I miss and appreciate our friendship so very much. We had fun shopping, dining, going to the movies, but most of all just visiting & keeping up with each others families. She never complained about her illness or expressed "why me". I really loved & remember her laugh. I think of all of you & what a difficult time this is. She was a great person & will not be forgotten.

I got to know Marge through the book club we both attended. What a neat woman! I loved her sense of humor, her optimism, and her wide range of interests. She was so proud of her grandchildren (children too!). May God be with you through this difficult time.

Hi Tom & family,
I worked with Marge at Christ Hospital. We always had such a good time together & because of her Irish spirit did alot of laughing. She was so short that her legs didn't hit the floor when she sat, so she would sit there swinging her legs like a little girl. I got the biggest charge out of that. I always remember her swinging those short little legs. She has endured much & so have you Tom & certainly deserve a lot of credit for keeping her alive all this time. I...

Dear Laura,
We were sorry to hear of the death of mother. We will be thinking of you in this season of peace! Love Mary & Terry Childers

In my limited contacts with Margaret, I was impressed with the fact that the seemed to always have a smile on her pretty face in spite of the difficulties she was experiencing. Her eyes seemed to say that she was always on the brink of another clever and funny statement. My wife Julie knew her much better, and has always had such positive things to say about Margaret. God bless you Tom, and the rest of the family, in this difficult, difficult loss. We will be praying for you all.

Dear Tom and family,
I am so thankful that I had the wonderful opportunity to journey through nursing school at Little Company of Mary with Marge. I instantly gravitated to her warm personality, smile, love and laughter! She became a great friend to me, and I know she loved me like a mother! I was always amazed at how she balanced family and school! I know she loved being a nurse, but she especially loved being a wife, mom, and grandma. Tom & Marge were a true love story. Your...

Tom and Family - Marge had such a strong and wonderful spirit; she loved her family, embraced her friends and never gave up in her faith in God. You must take your strength from her ways in these sad and difficult times. She will still be your rock.
