In memory of...

Aunt Marge

It's a sad time in our family. We recently suffered the loss of Aunt Marge from Wisconsin who died last Sunday. Her two daughters, Judy and Patty, had finally convinced her to move down here from Wisconsin, and she was able to live the remainder of her life here in warmth and sunshine. Although we didn’t see as much of her as we could have, she will be missed greatly, especially at the holidays. My heart breaks for them now they have only each other, but I hope they know that they have a support group of aunts, 1 uncle and cousins to be there when they need them.

This is a picture that my sister, Tamie, put together to give Aunt Marge this past Christmas, however, we never got all of us together to give it to her. Dad and Tamie framed this and now it was given to Patty to take with her to Wisconsin to be set up at the funeral so that we can all be there. It's sad when you think about it, we are always saying let's get together soon, but soon never comes, until it's too late.

They are having the funeral this Friday in Manitowac, Wisconsin and she will be buried alongside my uncle (her husband).
