I am very saddened to read of Margery's passing. She was so helpful to me with my first rescue corgi Munchie, and with many other corgi questions throughout the years. Margery was a person you just wanted to hug, and always felt blessed to know. My prayers are with Margery's family. Please know Margery made a very positive impact on our family, both 2 and 4 footed.

Margie was a really nice neighbor. I met her when I moved into the neighborhood in 2002. We often stopped to chat, and I loved to pet her dogs. I will never forget the cake she made us (she brought it over right out of the oven!) after my boyfriend blew the leaves off of her driveway the next fall. We will miss her. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends.

I met Margie nine years ago when I became her supervisor. Margie had the biggest heart of anyone I know, always eager to please. I considered her a good friend as well as an awesome coworker. My condolenses to her friends and family. She is in our hearts and prayers here at the OIC!

I first met Margie in Nov of 2004 when I came to work at the Insurance Commissioner's Office. And that first day she was assigned to train me on phones. I was so nervious, but she made me feel so welcomed. I'll never forget her smile espeacialy when she spoke about her dogs. I will keep Margie and her Family in prayers. God Bless.
