They were always together as children and she called Marilyn, my sissie! Margie loved all babies and children since her childhood days! Her main goal in life was taking time to care for her children and provide a good family home for them. She loved spending time with her grandchildren. She and Bill spent 25 years in Arizona and returned to Westerville, Ohio in 2015. Margie loved cruising around in Aunt Helen’s old car! A celebration of life will be held at a later date. Her dad Dudley liked to plant trees. Please plant a tree in lieu of flowers.
