So sorry to hear of Margie's passing. I have not seen her in many years but she lived across the street from my parents. I remember she always had a very soft voice. My condolences to her entire family.

I was very sorry to hear of Marjorie's passing. She was a great neighbor who will be missed by all. Marjorie and I had some very lengthy discussions about the civil war over my picket fence while she would be on her way to and from the post office. I will miss those talks. I regret that I was unable to make it to Shoracs to see you, but unfortunately we also lost a family member this week and things have been very hectic. Sincerely, Jeff Copeland
