Billy, Steve and Kathy our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Aunt Marge was a sweet sweet lady. Just saw the picture of her from her birthday celebration and she looks just the same as I last saw her. We love you all. Rick and Judy
Our most sincere sympathy and deepest condolences go out to all the Robinson family. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
She was always the one who was there when I woke up from surgery. The first face I saw and she would tell me-when I saw your name…I’d tell them…I’ll watch over her…??-an angle with wings who decided to spread them and fly. One lady who knew what it took to servive, take care of her kids, and love to the full extent. One woman who will always be remembered as one heck of a woman. ???prayers to the Robinson family especially my best friend -Kathy?XO
I’m very sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. My thoughts and prayers are with the Robinson Family.
My thoughts and prayers are with Margaret’s family. May God be with you through this difficult time. She and I are second cousins, my grandmother was Addie Mae Rogers Redding, the oldest sister of Effie Lee Rogers Lillard.
