I met Margaret during her stay at Lindley Inn. After reading her obituary tributes I discovered that she had Glouster, Ohio "roots". I had relatives from that area and would have enjoyed sharing information! Prayers to the family!

I am so sorry for your loss.
Marge was a wonderful lady. I worked in the beauty shop just down the street from her house. I cut her hair for may years. She always had a smile on her face.
May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I will always remember "Margie" as one of the Walnut Hill moms we grew up with in Glouster. Mary and Marilyn were part of the gang of girls who all grew up together and I have fond memories of playing at their house, the cherry tree in the corner of the yard, the old dog named Goldie....and Margie's sweet smile. You are all in my heart at this sad time.
