I have never known a sweeter lady in my life. I worked with and visited with Margie in her home for years. Never did I hear her say a bad word about anyone. Tim, Tina and family what an honor it must have been to call her Mom! Prayers for you all at this time. She is in a better place'??

I met Margie two years ago when my mother moved to Peachtree Village in Farmington. We quickly became friends and began sitting at her table for lunch everyday. She was a very sweet lady and we had a lot in common with telephone company stories. We are so thankful we had the privilege of meeting her and becoming one of her friends. RIP Margie. You were certainly loved.

I don't believe I ever met a more pleasant person to be around in my life. Margie house was like a second home to me. One of my fondest memories was when Tim had a sleep over. There were four 8 year old boys staying the night. At 2:00 in the morning we were wrestling in the living room, and not being very quiet in the process. I could see Margie walking through the kitchen towards us. My thoughts were, WE ARE IN TROUBLE NOW!! We all got very still waiting for the reprimand. Margie looked at us and said. You guys want some popcorn. That was Margie. Tim and Tina. I will continue to keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
