Margaux was incredibly polite, beautiful, and a joy to spend a few moments with. I was one of the agents involved in helping her find her Chelsea apartment. 16 years later I haven´t forgotten her.

Dear Mike and Dana, Last forth of July 2007, at Piping was such a joyous time to see you both again. I'm home now in Jupiter, and reflecting back tonight on the past few days. Dana your friends are lovely as I actually taught Kimmie Cushney and Wick when they were little kids like you and Margaux. Time does fly as I didn't recongonize Kimmie, she's just beautiful! But I may add the more important thing NICE. I hope you remember the invitation to Jupiter, as I have a very private and peaceful horse farm. We have plenty of easy horses to ride and you could bring a friend or two,(as you know the Nieporte's always have alot of fun people around them.)And the invitation is open for anytime you'd like to just relax a little, the beach is close by, we have a extra car and like I said, I'd love to have you.I'm extremley low-key and I'd love to hear about your dancing. Most importantly, the peace the horses give you is very special. Hopefully, I'll see you and your Dad at Piping again this July
fourth, and I'll be giving you Both a super duper Big hug. Your such a special girl and the words you said to your sister were beautiful, I really had to tell you that again.I loved the special necklace, it was such a nice thing for all you girls to have. I always end my letters with a happy saying."Happy Trails until we meet again." The next time will be so much happier. Sincerely,
Joie
P.S. Mike, It goes without saying how much the entire NIEPORTE Family love you from the bottom of our hearts are prayers and thoughts go out to you. You are the best, Father, brother and friend anyone of us could ever have. Your friend, Joie

Dear Margeaux,
I didn't know you but I met your mother just yesterday and I know you didn't have an easy life. We are not perfect, but we all have the opportunity to live our lives as best we can and that's what you were doing.Your mother loved you in the best way she knew how. You are in heaven now, please watch over your mother, she needs an angel and that is you.
