Margie was always someone I looked up to. We worked together selling real estate in the 1980's mostly in Warren County. We both had young kids growing up..... (we had crazy schedules) ..... so our stories were always interesting to say the least. No matter how big the deal was she always kept her family in the forefront of her being. She will be missed by all that knew her and especially by Wayne, Jean and Steve and their families. My thoughts and prayers are with you and I will continue to send you happy memories of a very special lady.
