Rick we are so sorry to find out about Margo. So sad for you. We are glad to have met her and enjoyed the time we had chatting about the plants and doggies, and wish we’d been able to get together more. May God’s grace be with you and your family . . . and do hope to see you again at Maumelle Park.
Rick, so very sorry that I wasn't able to be with you and your family during this very sad time. Please know that I was thinking of you and praying for all of you. You know that I would have been there if possible. Love and hugs, your cousin, Dot
We are sorry to hear about your loss we pray that in the days ahead you will be fortified. May these words provide you hope and comfort during this your time of sadness. 1 Corinthians 15:21,22, "For since death came through a man, resurrection of the dead also comes through a man. For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive." Jesus said of himself that he was the resurrection and the life at John 11:25. May God sustain you all during this time as well.

You were and always will be the sister I never had. I know that right now, you are singing with our Lord's Choir and dancing with His Angels. Save me a place. To Rick, Chad and Melanie (spouses and children), she will always be with us in spirit. I love you all.
Rick and Chad, so sorry to learn of Margo's passing. I know she was such a big part of your lives and I pray for your peace during this difficult time.
