Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. Marge holds some special memories for me personally. She was a wonderful Nana to my children, Michael and Carey, and her generosity during my early years in the family is something I will never forget. She was an amazing cook who taught me so much, and I always admired her beautiful sewing and crocheting. Sending my deepest condolences and love to the entire family during this time.

    Warmly,
    Patricia Craig
