From her obit at www.schultzfuneralhomes.com:
"Margie was born Margaret Mary Thiel April 23, 1956 in DeWitt, Iowa"

"She loved her family and their activities dearly, teaching and the
students she taught. Even in her illness, Margie continued to do
tutoring. She always said she had three "F's", Faith, Family and
Friends. Margie wanted people not to be sad that she's gone, but happy
that she lived."
