Margie was preceded in death by her parents, her brothers Warren and Arlie, her sister Ilene (Kenneth) Brown, and her niece Cathy Tooley.

According to Margie’s wishes, there will be no funeral. Private Interment.  As she was a cancer survivor, any memorials may be made to the American Cancer Society.
