Aunt Marge was always a bright spot in our family. She made everyone feel special. I remember her from when I was very young and how capable and giving she was then, to just last summer when she visited us and shared a meal around our fire pit. We laughed, ate, and enjoyed each other's company that warm summer day. She will be missed by all, not just for her knowledge of things, but for her love and kindness.
