Margie Thies was one of my favorite people in the world. This picture looks just as I remember her, with a bright smile for everyone and full of loving generosity. She will be missed. Rest in the peace you so deserve, my friend.

Rest in peace, Margie.  You were one of the sweetest, gentlest souls I knew when we were young.  To me, you'll always be that age.  I hope, despite it all, you got some joy out of life.  You certainly deserved it.
