She was blessed with a wonderful step father in William Tuomi. Marge grew up in Virginia, Minnesota and lived her married life in Britt at the end of Tall Pine Road. She was a self declared “Pampered American Housewife” who loved her family, church and community well. She spent her days caring for her family and home, serving coffee to everyone who came over, reading books and hosting Bible studies for her neighbor ladies. Her kitchen table was a place where family and friends gathered in fellowship with many hours of laughter, love and life. Marge’s faith in Jesus was her greatest joy.
