Queridas Martha, Olga y María Cristina:

Reciban nuestras más sentidas condolencias extensivas a toda la familia por el fallecimiento de tan maravilloso ser humano, quien con su bondad, alegría y chispa para la palabra siempre iluminó cada momento que contamos con su inolvidable presencia. Hoy recordamos a Margot tal y como la conocimos décadas atrás en virtud de su imperecedera huella, e imaginamos verle aún en camino por desconocidas tierras sin dejar de brindar su entrega y generosidad. Gracias Margot por ayudarnos a hacer de nuestro recorrido por esta vida una experiencia llena de momentos felices; y nuestra gratitud a sus queridas hijas y a toda la familia por tantos años en los que compartimos de lo trascendental de su existencia.
