Aunt Margie was one of my favorite aunts. Her quick wit and sense of humor will always stand out in my memories of her. I always looked forward to seeing her, and Uncle Bob, at the LaRue family reunions! She will truly be missed. Our hearts go out to ##imported-begin##Pam Oxford Joiner##imported-end##
