Marge worked for Advertising Specialty Institute retiring as a supervisor after twenty years of service. During her tenure she was awarded Employee of the Year in 1984. While raising her daughters Marge always found time to be a part of the PTA, homeroom mothers and lunch mothers at Our Lady of Good Counsel where she was a parishioner for over twenty years.
Sunday dinners were always special occasions and Marge happily hosted large extended family cook-outs during the summers on Militia Hill Rd. Her hobbies included bowling, gardening and sewing. She was an avid reader of the daily newspapers, cover to cover, always enjoying discussions on current events and completing the crossword puzzles which made her a whiz at Scrabble, her favorite board game.
