She enjoyed Broadway and off Broadway shows, and holidays together at the Kohl's home in Long Island. Their home is full of love and music as evidenced by their traditional holiday singalongs. Margie enjoyed the energy of the big city, it's many restaurants and great entertainment that NYC affords. She was very bright with a quick wit and had a great sense of humor and style.
