I am so sorry to hear of this. I will always remember the fun times we had as children.

My fondest memory of Margie is our "Cousins Reunion" approximately 11 years ago. There were five of us that hung around together as children. My cousins, Betty Lou and Jimmy Saunders, my sister, Nancy Hiortdahl, Maureen, Margie's sister and myself.



We spent five wonderful days in the sun, horsing around in the ocean, eating good food and just playing catch up with one another as it had been years since we were last together. It was great!



Another memory that stands out is when we would all converge on the Ambassador Hotel in Washington, DC to spend the day swimming together.
