We used to walk the Rec Trail together back in the 1990’s, when Marge was at the DLI.  What a compassionate and creative woman.  She made the world a better place by her presence.  Linda Frederiksen

I had the privilege of knowing Marge through singing, first in a women’s barbershop group, then in a barbershop quartet with Laura. Our quartet name was the Sweet Tomatas and we had so much fun rehearsing and performing in the community. I admired so many things about Marge. She was a strong, independent woman who instilled her love of music in her children. What a wonderful gift that was!

I met Marge in 1964-5 and as a new mom she was there for me daily. Our lives changed and neither of us had the time to hang out, but kept in contact for quite a while after.  My heart goes out to Elaine, Julie, Aron, Laura, Susie and Greg.  You are in my prayers, where your Mom has been since forever.  I will never forget her and know she is at peace.

I am so sorry to learn of her loss.  I enjoyed growing up around Marge, and being with Laura, Susie, and Greg aka Pookie.  Marge was such an amazing lady and mentor.  I was just remembering her last week.  Sending my love and condolences to the family.

Singing together! (MPCS, Bay Belles... SWEET TOMATAS!) Worked hard, laughed a lot. Volunteering, too - Dixieland Festival, Bach Festival... A memorable trip to Oregon in Marge's van. I loved singing with you, Marge, and being your friend. You were an inspiring spirit in my life! A strong, giving, caring woman! Loving prayers and hugs to everyone who is missing you in their lives!

I worked with Marge at the DLIFLC for many years.  She was an awesome boss and even better friend.  I moved out of the area after I left DLIFLC in 1998 but I have many fond memories of our time together.  She was such an awesome person and I miss her.  WIsh I had tried to get back in touch sooner!
