Margie loved growing vegetables and flowers which she shared with neighbors and friends. She said often that “you plant one for yourself and two for the neighbors.”  Margie was a very moral and devoted Christian and put going to church very high on her priorities.

Four sisters, Patricia Shoemake, Debbie Sloan, Mary Miller, Betty Milligan, one brother Bob Shoemake, and special friend Evelyne Greene.
