What an amazing woman! My very first job at age 15 was a summer job as a mother’ helper for Marjorie and Walter’s three young children. I have fond memories of that. My sincere condolences to the family.

My dear friend will at last be reunited with her loving husband Walter and their daughter Melanie. I cherish precious memories of our shared discussions of our Alma Mater, our frequent lunches, theater performances, all the concerts, our political discussions, and our multi day trip to Baltimore where she judged a large group of women’s Barbershop groups. Margie, you were a bright light in this old world and will not be forgotten. Say hi to Charlie for me. Till we meet again, Margie,...
