Not sure what to say?

Can't believe she has been gone almost a year. What a grand lady!

I have special memories of Margie from our first meeting in the 4th grade at Rose School in Roseburg , Oregon . Memories flow ...sleepovers , MYF , Summer camps , swimming pool , Saturday movies at the Indian Theater, walking home through town from Jr High, spilling nail polish on her new dresser , feeling really nervous around her very serious dad , eating liver and onions for the first time with her family , double dating ,Job's Daughter's, football games , spending time at our Hecita...

I had a dream about Marjorie last night. She had started rep'ing again and looked wonderful. I decided to look her up today and am so sad to see that she has passed.
Marjorie was a first-class lady and a great business person. I am so glad I had the good fortune to know and work with her over the years. I will miss her. Sincere condolences to Gary and the rest of the family.

This news saddens me. Margie was a close friend long ago, at Roseburg High School. She was also a wonderful role model for all of us, with her dignified humility. I hope it is OK these days to say that she was pretty, too--but also pretty smart. She always kept us academic nerds scrambling to keep up. Rest in peace and in our hearts, dear Margie!

Sincere Condolences to all of the family. She was a grand lady and planned well the trip to New Zealand for my husband and I.

Sending love to Margie's family....So many wonderful memories of our young years in Roseburg. Margie was a special friend ,

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
