Marge was a member of the First Lutheran Church, Johnstown. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Marge enjoyed a hot cup of tea in the evenings while watching NCIS. She had a wonderful sense of humor and her philosophy for everything life threw at her, being big or small, was summed up in one simple phrase, which was “whatever”.
