Dear Dr. Kaiser and family. It was with great sadness that Mary Ann and I heard of Marge's passing. She was deeply loved by us and her absence, even though temporary will leave a large hole in the family and among friends. We desired to come to the service but were unable to. May God give you peace as you celebrate her homegoing and mourn her absence. T.J. Addington

Deepest and heart felt sympathy to the entire family. It was a pleasure to meet and work with Margaret she always brightened my day and left me thinking about how to live life. A bright light in this world. Someone who offered kidness and gentleness. I will take a piece of her with me wherever I go.
