Marge was a wonderful stairwell neighbor.  She was so young at heart.  Both she and Bob were like parents to all in the stairwell.  Will always fondly remember both of them.

      I first met Bob and Marge at Robinson Barracks (1965-1967) as we lived in the same stairwell - Bob and Marge on the 4th floor and we were on the 2nd floor.  She often made us pound cake, as well as other delicious goodies, and dropped them by our door.  To this day, I wonder how she managed to walk down all those flights of stairs to wash and hang clothes in the basement.  There was a heat-blower to turn on that would dry the clothes.  Often men from the middle east would sneak in our building and sleep in there, so many of the wives went down there in pairs to feel safe.
       After our leaving the army, your mom and I exchanged Christmas cards for 30 years beginning in 1968-1998.   Then in 1999 we called once or twice yearly rather than sending cards.   Our last call was 12/15/2017 and then I didn't hear from her.  I guessed she had passed, but couldn't find her obituary until this year.
     Marge was sharp as a tack and often talked about all you kids.  I knew  what everyone was doing and who was having babies.  You're all on file in my address book.  I know she was still traveling to visit her family when she was in her 90's.
     She loved all of you dearly and I feel that I know each of you personally..  Sorry this is so late, but I'm old too, and recently 
learned how to find things on my computer.
    I'm sure Marge is at peace and in the arms of  her Lord.  She was a wonderful friend, mom, grandma, and great-grandma.
With love,
