Margie was born and raised in Toledo, Ohio, and graduated from Kent State University in 1973. As a gifted knitter and needle artist, she was an active member of the Atlanta Knitting Guild and the Pomegranate Guild of Judaic Needlework. Margie volunteered for several communal organizations, including the National Council of Jewish Women (past president), Art Partners of the High Museum and the Jewish Women’s Fund of Atlanta. Margie was a generous and caring person who will be missed by many. We give special acknowledgment and appreciation to her loving caregiver, Vickie Turner, and her tremendous team from the Weinstein Hospice.
