Shall We Dance Douglas stood waiting for the love of his life. He would soon be reunited with Margaret his beloved wife. As the gates to Heaven opened, a smile lit up his face. There she was, his lady full of grace. He welcomed her with a warm embrace. His waiting was over, they had both reached God's final resting place. As the orchestra started he held out his hand, and asked softly, shall we dance together once again. Dancing together like when they were young. They couldn't be happier although their life's journey was done. Together forever in Heaven they would be. That is how our creator meant Margaret and Douglas to be. Hold their memories close in your heart, and take comfort in knowing that now they will never be apart. I wrote this in loving memory of my dear Great Aunt and Uncle. All my love, you both know how much you meant to me. Sherri Lee - Posted by: Sherri Van Wynsberghe (Great Niece) on: Sep 04, 2014

I am amazed to proudly say had the pleasure of knowing my great, great aunt, Auntie Margie. I'll never forget our visits at your place with Uncle Doug, little Curtis and those crazy cats. You were a genuinely beautiful soul- I hope you have found peace and comfort on the other side with your love, Uncle Doug, and will miss you and cherish your memory always! xoxo, Ashley Lynn - Posted by: Ashley Pouru (Great Great Niece) on: Sep 02, 2014

Margie: You taught me nursery rhymes - ALL of them - let me ride your two wheel bike when I was only 5 years old and hardly able to reach the handle-bars . . . . and so much more! The old adage is that life is too short, however, good memories last forever. Much love, Ray - Posted by: Ray Webber (Nephew) on: Sep 01, 2014

Auntie Margie, I will always remember as an accepting kind sole. She loved all her family, a welcomed all new members with open arms. She lived 95 years, and only a few without the love of her life, Uncle Doug. They are together again in heaven for eternity. I will miss her, but I will cherish her memories forever.

Life will not be the same without Margie. She was always more than just an aunt. She was like a second Mother. Always caring and always near when we were children.
