I grew up a few houses away from John & Margaret when they lived in New Era. They were always so gracious when us neighborhood kids wanted to come visit to swim in their pool. What a wonderful lady she was!

Marge was the most caring and unassuming person. She always quietly worked in the background for so many events. Her hospitality was unparalleled, for our church, for our family, for the neighborhood, as well as for friends. Our family spent many happy hours at their pool. She was a very special lady who leaves behind a grand legacy. Pat and Tom
I remember a farm with a tiny house that served as a playhouse? I remember going to see my Aunt Marge and Uncle Maury and all of my cousins...so much fun. And then I remember a wedding where my beautiful aunt was the bride! I know that she is beautiful and full of life again. That she will see the people she loved, but even more, that she will be with the Lord that she loved. I wish I could be there for the celebration, but know that I am praying for all of you- Love, Dee
Marge, Sally & I share games as a common interest. Through Rubbikub I was introduced to Marge and spent a lovely afternoon together laughing and learning a new game which is now one of my favorite. Marge you touched a lot of people's hearts and will be missed. Prayers to your family!


Dear Jerry, Kay and Family - In times of great sadness, look back and take comfort in all of the beautiful memories you made. We are so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. We're keeping you in our thoughts and prayers -

I only had the pleasure of meeting Margaret a couple times last summer when I came to town to visit family including Sally Klassen. She was just the sweetest lady and she gladly beat me at the games we played. She found a special place in my heart. My joy is that I will see her in the sweet by and by.
For Marcia, Maureen, Matt, Jerry, all you spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren. I am so very sorry for your loss.
Your mom was one of the sweetest, greatest blessings I've been lucky enough to have for an Aunt.
I always enjoyed our little one-on-one visits when I would bring her a puzzle. She'd always say ""you shouldn't do that" but was always excited to see the puzzle. I also loved spending the night with her and having breakfast in the morning.
You all know her love of God and I told her she'd have an express pass as she's always been such a loyal servant of our Lord.
I'll certainly miss the hours and hours and hours of Rummi-Q we played too!
She will be sorely missed.
Love, Deb and Mike
