Uncle Buck, Pam, Patty & Kirk:
I think of you all everyday & keep you in my daily prayers. I miss Auntie Marge tremendously and know you all do as well. There are constant reminders of her all around me. Somedays I laugh, smile or even cry. I'm sure you all do the same. I still hear her voice, her laugh, see her smile. I wonder what Auntie would have said or even pick up the phone to give her a call. I will never forget her love, generosity or things she taught me. I will always carry her love in my heart. I truly adored my Auntie Marge.
My love to you all.....

Ken, Patty, Pam, and Kirk,
I am so sorry to read of your loss. I remember years living next door, visiting Patty, and hearing Marge laughing. She made such beautiful cakes and made mine, years and years ago. I know that I can't say anything to make this easier for you, but I hope that the years of wonderful memories will help you all through this difficult time. Sending prayers of peace for all of you.

To the whole Goodman family,
I am so sad to hear of the passing of Marje. My memories of hanging out in your pool all summer are wonderful. How she put up with us running through the house as she was baking those beautiful cakes is beyond me. You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this time and always. Love, Angie and family
