I am so sorry to hear about Marge's passing. I am happy that her and my dad Oliver spent a decade of dancing and enjoying each others company. May you quickly find solace and peace in your mothers absence.

We were sorry to hear about Marge's passing. We kept in touch with her with Christmas cards and she was a special person.

Oh, for the memories. My parents and sisters were neighbors of Bill and Margie years ago on the west side of Des Moines. My sister, Laureen and I would often disagree of who would be "Margie McCabe" when we played house. Such fun times. We are sorry for the loss of your mother, Vicki.
