Hello Montillions: I see its been two years since your beloved mother, grandmother,etc. has passed. Unfortunately I had no idea or even knew about Hank's passing. I am your old cousin (69) from Michigan. We are related through your dad's side. I knew your mom and dad but unfortunately didn't see them often. My hubby and I when first married visited your grandmother Corene and grandfather at their home in Oak Ridge, TN. My mom was Helen Aldrich (Simonds) and was first cousin to Hank and George. Your grandmother Corene was the sister of my grandfather Frank Aldrich. Long story short - great grandfather Judge Fred H. Aldrich's beautiful home in Beverly Hills, MI was just sold. My current neighbor grew up in that home - her family owned for 51 years - and was putting together a history on the home to give at closing today. I was giving her info on family names and Montillon name was mentioned. I decided to google your name and your mom's obituary came up. I am very sorry to hear of her passing. My mom really thought she was a sweet and lovely lady. I have no clue if you will see this message but in the event you do, I'd love to meet all of you one day. My cell is 248-525-2333. Send me a text. All the best and much love to my long lost Montillon relatives.

We shared a life changing trip with Marge and Hank - a hike along the Inca Trail. Thus the Peru Crew was born! What an adventure that was, and it led to many more travels together. Marge had so many interests and shared them with us. We will always treasure our memories of Marge and the several "Marge serving bowls" we proudly own.

Our prayers and thoughts are with you all as we extend our deepest sympathy. We will miss Marge's beautiful smile at family gatherings. She was such a gifted and talented lady. We will always remember her whenever we use the pottery she made for us. Marge may you rest in peace, you will be missed.

Margorie was like a third mother to me, she always greeted me with open arms when we would visit her. She was a talented lady, and made some amazing pottery. Marjorie and Henry were great people to talk too. Thank you so much for what all you did for my family Marjorie. I will always cherish your pottery we received from you. Will miss you.
