Marge was my husband Jim’s aunt, and we spent many happy hours visiting over the years at his parents home in Minnesota. She was so kind, warm and welcoming, and I enjoyed our times together. She did love cookbooks, and was generous, I have several that she brought me over the years. She knew I enjoyed them as well, and in her thoughtful way would bring me one or two. Lovely person, I’m so sorry to hear of her passing. Our thoughts, hugs and love are with you, Lisa.
