When Aunt Marge came back to Michigan it was always an exciting time for my parents and us kids. She was always so positive and was always interested in the things we were involved in.

Marjorie was a very kind and compassionate woman. a wonderful teacher and a good friend to many. I always enjoyed talking to her. Her stepson Bruce and his wife Holly are good friends . I am glad her suffering is over. Rest in Peace Thou Good and Faithful Servant.

We are so saddened to hear of Marjorie’s passing, Dick! Our thoughts & prayers are continuing with you, & will include your & Marjorie’s extended family! Marjorie was such a refreshing light. We’ve never met such a caring person & she was always there for us, through highs & lows. I have been blessed to know Marjorie for the better of 19 years, & Don a bit longer. It wasn’t long before I felt blessed to consider her my friend. I so enjoyed her stories of her childhood & teaching days, the books she wrote, & our long conversations about everything. I have missed her & we shall always miss her. We extend our deepest condolences & love to you & yours, Dick! Please continue to stay close with us, & know that you are ever welcome in our home! With love & gratitude, The Betts Family

Mrs. Haines, you were an inspiration to us all. Thank you for everything. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
