Marge wrote the following:
To My Family and Friends:
If my parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh or a kiss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life has been full, I savored much. A wonderful family, good friends, good times and a loved one's touch.
God said it is time, you must go. He set me free!
