I just learned about Margarite's passing. I became friendly with her at Pelican Marsh and we always talked about her teaching, volunteering at the Holocaust Museum, movies, books and of course, our families. She was a lovely, classy lady with a warm personality. I will miss seeing her. I am so sorry for your loss.

I had known her through the Buddhist Meditation group and we shared a lot about livng a good life. We had lost touch for a long time and I was so shocked at the news of her passing. She loved her family very much and I wish my condolences at this difficult time. I will always remember her kindness and her beautiful smile. We also shared some wonderful laughter.

I was so sorry to hear about Margie. We attended school and Sunday school together and were always friendly.
When she moved to Florida we lost contact but I always kept tabs on her through some of the other girlfriends from Clayton High.
She was beautiful, sweet and had a wonderful smile.
My deepest condolences to all of you, her children and grandchildren.
With sincere sympathy,

I volunteered with your mom at the Holocaust Museum and we spent time sharing our stories and became friends. She absolutely lit up when talking about her cherished children and grandchildren! I just liked her a lot. I am so sorry for your loss.

Jeffrey,, Lisa, and Carol,

I am so shocked and saddened to hear about your mother. Even though I had not seen her in years, I will always remember our summer European sojourn when we were young and 20. She was a delight and Will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

I have so many wonderful memories of Margie. She has been a very special friend from the moment we met. I still remember that day. I had moved into the Glove Factory in Indianapolis, right next door to Margie. One evening, shortly after moving in, I heard a significant level of music coming through my living room wall. I knocked on her door, introduced myself and explained that I could hear her stereo quite well inside my apartment. Margie greeted me with her beautiful, trademark smile, apologized, explaining that she had just gotten a new stereo, and invited me in for a drink. Her gracious response was so typical of the Margie I knew and loved. I will miss her. To Laney, Carol, Lisa, Jeff and all the rest of Margie's wonderful family, I offer my sincere condolences. May you find peace in knowing that from her work at the Holocaust Museum to simply being a cherished friend to me and so many others, Margie has assuredly left an indelible impression on all whose paths she's crossed. I am so glad our paths crossed on that day so many years ago. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
