Marjorie was a blessing to the people that knew her. She was always so warm to the people around her. She will be missed by many. I will always think of her on Labor Day weekend as that was when traditionally Kate, Kevin and the kids would visit her. God Bless

Marjorie was a wonderful woman. I have many warm memories of visiting with Marjorie in Clarence Center and in Connecticut. She was always genuinely interested in people and their lives. Clarence Center is a better place because of Marjorie! I know she will be missed by many, especially her family. She is blessed to have lived such a long, full life!

I will always treasure the time I was able to share with Margorie as a fellow school board member. Her sense of humor was so unique. Many years ago, as a young woman, I had the pleasure of working for her wonderful husband John and I am sure they are now at peace together.

Margorie will be missed. As a fellow school board member in the '80s, Margorie constantly impressed me with her ability to focus the entire board on solutions that were right for the kids. I have always admired her wisdom and her sense of optimism. It was a pleasure and a privilge to have know Margorie.

Mrs Chase was the best woman arround. I cleaned her house for her once maybe twice a week for her and then she and i would talk about life and then she would say life is only a stepping stone to something better so live this on to the best of your ability but live the next one better. so i believe she is doing that and i will do the same. GOD bless her and her family. Jenna Kreutinger(Desing)

Marge has been my neighbor on Long St for almost 20 years. I have always admired her intelligence, humor, independence and love of life. What a wonderful lady. She will be missed. I consider myself lucky to have known her.

Dearest Marjie, was the most professional, endearing, community serving person I know. She was a never ending mentor for me both as a shool board member and great friend. So many people know so many wonderful ways in which she helped or served others. Her professional standing as a school board member is unparalleled. She and John were admired for their love and companionship. Clarence will miss her.

Bon Voyage to a fine, special Clarence friend, neighbor, civic leader, who, by knowing us, made us all better. It was a pleasure to know and to work with Marge in just a few of her many contributions to making our community a better place. She will be missed.
