Marge enjoyed baking, sewing, bowling, golf, swimming, walking, and shopping. Jim and Marge loved traveling and took many trips throughout the U.S. and Europe as well as cruises throughout the Caribbean. Marjorie loved Vero Beach. After 10 years in Vista Royale, Marge and Jim moved to Grove Isle where she lived for 30 years. She loved her community and for most of her years was an active participant in the HOA.

The light of Marge’s smile will always shine brightly in my memories of her. She drew you in with a welcoming look and warm conversation, listening, sharing, laughing, caring. My husband, daughter, and I met Marge 13 years ago when our son, Perry, met and later married her granddaughter, Kristen. Our hearts join with the family’s hearts in the loss of this great lady, and we lift you all in love and prayer.
