Aunt Marge was an influence in my life from birth to current day. My Mom was her sister and Aunt Marge was my second Mom. We were alike in many ways……she married young and had a long and loving life with Uncle John. They did not have children of their own but cared for many. She was a working women as I was. We also cared for many both family and troubled young teens. We will miss her dearly.
