I remember Margie from Richwoods. She was a friendly loving girl then. I imagine she grew into a special lady and a loving mother. May God share His strength and comfort to all Margie's family and friends. RIP

Bryce & Critter, 
I can't begin to tell you what your mom meant to me. We met back in grade school, hung out in high school, and kept in touch throughout the years. She was such an inspiration to me. We shared joy, laughter, tears and friendship. 
My heart aches, but I know she is finally at peace with our Lord, I loved her and will miss her dearly. I will keep you both in my prayers. Please know you can call me if you ever need anything.

In Memory of my high school friend,Margie:
I have thought of Margie so often over the years.  During our years at Richwoods, we hung out together, laughed til our sides hurt, and 
had a great time. Margie was always smiling, the cutest little thing, and so nice.  To this day, I still remember her voice.  
I wish for her family to find comfort in her memory.
Blessings to all who loved her.

Another old high school friend here.
I met Margie freshman year and we had some great times in the four years. I will never forget her contagious laugh and her beautiful smile.   She was so spunky and happy.   She touched many, many lives and she will forever be in our hearts.   
Sincere sympathy to the family.

I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. I met Margie freshman year in high school. We were in almost all the same classes. She was always so full of life and fun. We hung out all through school and still got together every now and then until 1985. Then I moved away and lost contact. She was a very spaecial person to me. I looked for her for years, but never found her. I wish I had. She will always be in my heart. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Camille Pabon McCann
