Condolences to my Uncle Ted, and the rest of the Family. Growing up in Atlanta, I was not fortunate enough to know Margie. But I do know that she and Ted had a wonderful life together and that she will be missed by all who did know her.

I thought of Aunt Marge almost as an older sister. Her sence of humor was not to be outdone by anyone at any time. As a younger person I remember her taking Anna, Sharon and myself trick or treating on several occasions. She would make her costumes from my and Sharons old clothes and go with us with her own bag. She was never discovered and fooled people she had worked with as well as family she had grown up around. She always had a smile, a laugh and always said she wanted me to be happy in all that I did. I have missed her for the 10 or so years she had been ill and I refused to see her not from any reason other than I wanted to remember her as she was. My silly Aunt Marge.

Prayers for my Nana as well as my grandfather, Mom, Aunt and Uncle. It's been a rough several years and she will be greatly missed; there is comfort knowing she is free from her ailing body and mind. She is now at peace along with her parents, sister, and brother-in-law. Nana loved us with all she had, I'll treasure the memories.
