So sorry to hear this news. In time your tears will turn to laughter as each of you continues to feel Marge's wisdom, kindness, and love. Marge and my mother (Ruth) attended Westminster college together! My mother always spoke fondly of Marge.

I miss you, Mom. I know you're in a better place playing bridge again and enjoying time with Dad and all of our old pets. We'll continue passing on the words of wisdom that you and Dad passed on to us, by sharing them with our children and our grandchildren....and of course always have a pet (or two) in our home.
I will love you always,
Your Boo Boo Bear

I met the Doak family when I was in my late teens. I always enjoyed Marge's sense of truth and compassion. She & I shared a west coast, east coast correspondence for over 4 decades. I will truly miss her.
My warmest sympathy goes out to the entire Doak family.

My deepest condolences go out to the Doak family regarding the loss of your mother. I loved and admired her as one of my mom's oldest and dearest friends in Bradford Woods. She touched many lives in that community and has certainly left a wonderful legacy in her children. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

To all of Marge's family. I knew Marge for many years thru Howard Hanna. She inspired a lot of us not to be afraid of technology and I admired her for never being afraid to tackle whatever new came along. She would always make you laugh and was one of the most upbeat persons I have ever know. She will truly be missed, but never forgotten.

My sincere sympathy on the loss of your mother and grandmother.
I worked with Marge for many years at Howard Hanna, where she was one of our most colorful and beloved colleagues. Marge had a vibrancy that belied her years and we all respected and admired her.
May she rest in peace.
