I will always remember Aunt Margie's laughter and sense of humor. She was always so sweet to me and all of the children. I looked forward to her visits in years past. She would always have her dark hair fixed in finger wave curls and always the red lipstick on. There are so many memories of all of our families and the times we all spent together either in Florida or Winston-Salem..To all of my cousins and families, please accept my deepest sympathy. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you!!Sincerely,Lynn Martin Sharpe

I was neglectful and forgot to add some important people to my comments about Aunt Margie. She was also preceded in death by three sisters, Dale Blevins, Helen Burgess and Tomasina Kiger. I am sorry for forgetting to add these to my comments.

I will always miss & love my Aunt Margie. I wish I could make the trip to FL to honor her. Her two surviving sisters, Ann Martin and Sue East, who live here in Winston Salem & Clemmons, NC, wish that they could make this trip as well. She was loved also by her son that preceded her in death, Ernest "Pinky" Lee Lewis and her spouse that also preceded her in death, Toby Ledford. Two of her grandchildren, children of Ernest, Rhonda and Jerry Wayne Lewis, also preceded her in death, as did the daughter of her son Harold, Joni Smith. She was born here in Winston Salem, NC to the late Faye Mitchell Kiger & Luther Kiger, and lived her early years here, when her children were young. I had the great pleasure of her keeping me when I was young, and all of my cousins doted on me. I wish that I would have had the opportunity to have seen them more during my life. I loved my Aunt Margie, very much, even though I did not get to tell her as often as I wanted to or should have. Rest in peace Margie. Tell Toby hello for us all.

Aunt Margie, I usually called you Grannie Gertie and always looked forward to all those Friday nights me, you and mom would go out to dinner somewhere. I loved those vacation trips to Disney World, North Carolina, the space center, Cypress Gardens and many more places we would go to every summer. I'll never forget the time at Animal Kingdom in Disney when you got off that ride and kept yelling at me that your hat had fallen off. You kept tapping the top of your head saying Bobbie I lost my hat and I was laughing so hard I was finally able to tell you you were wearing a visor and that's why you could only feel your hair, not the hat. Priceless memory! I'll miss you and always love you. Tell all those in Heaven your with now Hi for me, and if Lucky's playing with PJ up there give them a hug for me. Love,Bobbie Sue
