Tanya,
So sad to hear of Granny’s passing. Relish the fact that you knew her well and longer than most grandchildren get to spend with their grandparents. Praying for you all.

I worked with Margie for so many years at Square D. She was a delightful lady, a wonderful caring friend. My sympathy, Mafre & Myra
Margie was a sweet and dear lady. She always had a smile and a kind word. I have always had a special fondness for her . . . from when she worked with my mother at Square D and later always stopping by to see her at Sam’s and, in more recent years, at her home. I know that she sees clearly now and that earth’s loss is heaven’s gain. Nonetheless, she will be missed! Our prayers and hugs to all the family.
To Margie’s family,
I am sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. Margie was a fine lady and co-worker.
