Margie had a personal relationship with many of Noah's staff and customers. She took care of us when we celebrated happy times and when we met in sad times for years. Our family and friends adored her welcoming grace and her professionalism.
Somehow, Margie and I began exchanging scratch-off lottery tickets years ago. We'd mail three tickets to each other, and if a ticket had won, we'd stick half of the winnings in the envelope. It was fun for all of us.
If Margie trained new people, you could tell they'd been trained to be excellent wait staff. She had her standards, and everyone knew it. In her later years when the weather was icy, though, she'd tell us that someone from Noah's had picked her up and would take her home. She wanted to work, and Noah's wanted her there. It was a mutual relationship.
What a legacy Margie earned. Not many will work at the same place for 45 years and be an excellent employee to the end. We've missed Margie. We know we're not alone in that.

I worked with Marge for almost 5 years at Noah's -- she is a dear friend who is one in a Million. When I left I always came back on my Birthday & she always treated us like we were the only ones in there -- I will miss the compliments & friendship my dear friend. Rest in peace until we meet again. I Love You

How my husband and I loved seeing Margie every Saturday night! She always seemed just as happy to see us. She was the perfect waitress and friend, one in a million. May God Rest your soul, Margie . . . . He knows you are deserving of it!

What a blessing to have Margie take care of us at Noahs Ark restaurant. Her memory of remembering the visit before and asking how our family was and tell us about her life. We hadnt seen her for awhile and knew she cut down on the number of days she worked. She will be missed. Thank you Margie for being such a great waitress and friend to Carla and John Clement. The Lord has blessed us and know you are in that beautiful place in Heaven.

Margie was a remarkable lady! She was so loyal and dedicated to her head waitress job at Noah's Ark. She would always take time to visit with us, and we enjoyed our many good chats over the years. Our lives were blessed with her friendship. She is watching over all of us in heaven. Margie will always have a special place in our hearts.

Noahs wont be the same without Margie. She was always welcoming, friendly, and professional.
For us, Noahs has always felt like family. Margie was a member of that family, and we will miss her.

I was so sad to hear of Marge's passing. I've known Marge for 45 years and I'm only 45 years old! I grew up with her being our waitress at Noah's and then my children grew up knowing her, as well. She has taken so many family photos of us through the years when we celebrated big events at the restaurant. In later years we insisted she be IN the photos with us, as well, because she was family. We will all miss her greatly.

I was so blessed to have known Marge from my family going to Noahs for years and we would only let Marge be our waitress. She became a part of our family. My mom and step dad were very close to Marge and we all loved her.
She was an excellent waitress and she always made our times at Noahs a truly wonderful family experience. We Love You Marge. We will Miss You So Much! ❤
