Not sure what to say?

I have fond memories of Sister Marguerite teaching me when I was in highschool at Marian. Sad to hear she is no longer with us. She was a bright light.

I loved her dearly and I will never forget her. Thank you Sister Marguerite and thank you family for sharing her with the rest of us.

So sorry to hear of Marguerite's passing. I knew her at Bishop Grimes and she was a hoot! Her humor and her enthusiasm made any gathering delightful!

Rest in Peace Margie and pray for the three you left behind
Marian

Dear family, Sister Marguerite touched my life as an inspiring, beloved teacher. I will never forget her positive attitude and gentle nature. We shared many conversations but the most memorable of all for me was discussing her favorite book, The Little Prince and his message to her: "We risk getting hurt when we love". As we hurt over her loss, I can vow the risk was worth it. RIP

Julie, Marian, and Patricia...... I am so sorry to hear of Sr. Margie's death. I have very fond memories of her from years past. She welcomed each person with boundless joy and respect. Her presence will be missed by family, the Sisters, and many from Tipperary Hill, Syracuse. Melanie Young

Margie was a very special woman who touched my life as the husband of her niece Erin. I fondly remember visiting her at the convent the summer before last. She was already physically ailing, but her spirit was strong and welcoming. I know she is now fully enjoying the light of Christ that she so wonderfully reflected during her life here with us.
