Not sure what to say?

She was one of the best teachers ever. I had her in elementary school & the joy she spread was contagious! Such a kind & giving spirit, she knew that a friend & I loved horses, so with another teacher also, we rode Tommy. What a great horse! Margaret Decker shines on always.

Margie was one of my best friends in college and we talked by phone nearly every Christmas in recent years. As a roommate in Champaign, Illinois I still remember her chasing one of my cats with a broom! Loved her laugh, loved her heart, loved her spirit of caring for others!

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

I knew Margie through my mother and her mother as they were dear friends who both passed away from Cancer. We all volunteered at Boley Angels and Infinity and many other causes our mothers were involved. Rest in Peace my friend. Celma Louise (Celmita) Mastry

Margie has been one of my best friends for thirty years. Her kindness was surpassed by none and we shared many fine times.
She always loved to come to dinner and Wednesday was always our special night. We had a nice long talk last week and I am so grateful for that. I will miss her.

Dan and I have so many wonderful memories of our times with Margie over the last 30 years. She was a truly special person.

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.

My fondest memories of Margie are her love for the children at Edison Elementary School in Danville IL. Both of my sons still play guitar because Margie taught any student who wanted to learn to play - after school at no cost and on her own time. Her musicals with the students were the most wonderful productions and she was a dear friend to so many. I especially remember going out to the stable each year to shampoo her beloved horse Tommy so she could gather her friends for his birthday...

I met Margie at Indian Springs Stable near Danville. We rode our horses together on many trails.
