Please accept my deepest condolences to your family. Marge and I shared some good times and bad during our time together at the Bank. She was a great side kick on our rides to Boston. Love and cherish the memories.

So many memories of my second mom. What a wonderful caring person who took care of me in so many ways. I am so thankful to have had her in my life. She was a person who I not only admire, but an inspiration. Love always, Carolyn
