I don’t know what caused me to find this tonight. I was thinking of old friends and Margie popped to mind. Margie, Kathy and I were great friends. We shared apartments together in Pittsburgh after we graduated from Seneca Valley. The 3 of us did everything together. As life went on, we moved to different areas and I’m now in So. California so I have not seen my friends for many years, but news has saddened me a great deal. I can only say that she was a wonderful friend and we had so many awesome, wonderfully fun times together. God Bless you Margie and I know GOD is holding you in his arms right now and I hope your family is comforted in the knowledge that GOD will always be with you. Love to you always. Patti Watanabe
