Not sure what to say?

I just found out about Margot! I think of her often. She catered our wedding 20 years ago, gave us such a great price, was kind and generous throughout the whole process and even used apples from our garden for the meal to make it extra special. She was one of the kindest most patient people I have ever met. Rest in peace Margot.

I´m so sorry to hear about Margot. I knew her from Latin School and always remembered her being very kind.

I met Margo when she and Chris came to see me about designing the Bima logo. That was the beginning of a profound friendship I hoped would last into old age. I miss them both so much.

I worked with Margot briefly when I started as a mail carrier. She was very patient and kind to me and always had a positive attitude, no matter what. She gave me encouragement to improve as a carrier, urging me to "walk with intention!" One dark and rainy day, I was struggling on my route and Margot was sent to take some mail off me. She jumped out of her mail truck, with her pith helmet and rain cape fanning out in the wind, and I couldn't help but think she looked like a super hero.

Margot - a special being. Uniquely her own! Kind, real and positive despite the last year's obstacles. She will be missed dearly. xoxo

To me, Margo was a bright and shining star. She knew how to live life to the fullest. She added joy to the gatherings where I saw her. She was brave. She set an example for us to follow. I send healing thoughts and I pray for comfort for her wonderful family. Clare
