My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Marge was one of my favorite customers at the pharmacy. I consider myself lucky to have known her all these years. I admired her because she was spunky and feisty, in fact, I always told her that I wanted to be just like her when I grew up. She was a very special person and will be dearly missed.

Dear Jim, Sandra and Mary Jo,
I'm so sorry to hear about Marge passing. She was always so good to us. Marge always had the pantry stocked with all of our favorite snacks and never minded us invading her home. I think she actually liked us being there. She was a great lady!
Love,
