Not sure what to say?

Margot was my neighbor in NE Portland for a few years. Music was so important to her, and she inspired so many people to its healing powers.

I just heard a song of Margo´s on the Belgian radio (Classic 21), and I said, "wow, what a voice!", I searched her name up to see if she had made new releases and this obituary came up. I send my warmest condolences to the friends and family of Margo. May she rest in peace. With love from Belgium xx

Margo was very talented and very nice. She left us too soon. My condolences go to her family and friends.

Yes she will be missed by many in so many venues. As a singer an Actor and activist she truly will be missed

The world has lost a beautiful voice. Margo - you were a beautiful soul and I will miss you.

I loved Margo´s voice, and her swagger. Those days at the Candlelight Room are gone, but your beautiful soul is not forgotten.

I remember many great nights hearing her and the band at the Candlelight Room. What a voice! Thank you Margo, you will be missed!
