To Linda, Charles and ALL of sweet Margie’s family and friends and as part of that we feel the same sorrow for our loss; however, it is not her loss but her gain and I am so happy that she is now with Jesus. She meant the WORLD to us. I will miss my TV partner filling me in when she saw our shows and I missed them and I look forward to seeing her again.
Charles, Linda, Mark, Anita & Ashley
We are so sorry to hear about Granny, she was such a wonderful lady, who always had a smile on her face no matter how bad she felt. I know that you will all miss her very much, but she is in the presence of our Lord and not in pain anymore. We are sorry that we couldn’t be at the visitation, please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. If there is anything that we can do please let us know.
