Margie deeply loved God, her husband Ray and her ever growing family. She was very loving and welcomed everyone with open arms. We all know the comfort of coming into her home and grabbing a ‘pop’ from her always stocked fridge and one of the many snacks she always kept on hand.
In true Christian spirit, Margie loved big and unconditionally and was the most honest person you could ever meet. So honest that she drove back to the grocery store one evening to give the cashier back the 2 pennies overpaid to her in change. She was so worried that the cashier was going to come up short in her drawer and Margie couldn’t stand the thought of her getting in trouble for that.
She was a longtime member of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Elgin where in her younger days, she was an active member serving on the Alter Guild, teaching Sunday school and Vacation Bible School, and setting up and monitoring the Church Library.
Margie leaves behind a big legacy of love and many, many precious memories that her family will cherish forever.
