  5. Marge was a wonderful friend to me and such a kind, loving person. I so enjoyed being in Church with her and in Bible Study. We had some great times together. She and Dick were also wonderful neighbors. Dick and Marge meant so much to Harold and I. I am missing all three of them now. I look forward to meeting all three of them in Heaven someday. They are all walking the streets of gold with Jesus now. I will miss her very much. Love her and love all her family.

    • My deepest sympathy to you all. Aunt Margie was truly a blessing in my life. One day I was talking to her on the phone and asked her to pray for my marriage. And a couple days later I received a card and a story in the mail. The story was on forgiveness. She was my spiritual mother. I want to be like my auntie…I will miss her
      Again to all those touched by Marge, I say “GOD IS ON TTHE THRONE”..love ya

  9. Marge and Dick were the first people we met at First Nazarene church in Lincoln and we have cherished their friendship ever since. Their whole family has meant a great deal to us down through these 20 years and we will dearly miss Dick and Marge. They have blessed us beyond measure and they both will be missed so very much.
